Residents in Rhodesfield, Kempton Park, question why long-standing service delivery problems are addressed only days before the funeral of murdered runner Elizabeth Moselakgomo. Local residents say street repairs and related interventions were carried out close to the time of her burial, prompting concerns about whether the timing reflects responsiveness or coincidence.

The report frames the issue as a wider public-service concern in Ekurhuleni, where some residents have long complained about infrastructure and maintenance shortcomings. By linking the repairs to Moselakgomo’s death, the outlet highlights community frustration about delays in addressing everyday municipal issues. The piece does not indicate that authorities say the timing is connected to the case, but it captures residents’ calls for clearer explanations regarding service delivery timelines.

Overall, the focus is on the community’s reaction to the sudden progress in street work, and the question of why similar problems reportedly persisted for an extended period until late in the process.
