The City of Johannesburg has committed to revamping and improving the licencing centres throughout the city, which is great news for all!
Councillor and MMC for public safety in the City of Johannesburg Michael Sun tweeted out a statement confirming that the city will be working to make licencing departments better for the people of Joburg.
Majority of the city’s licencing departments will have their hours extended and Saturdays included to help alleviate the backlog. The centres will be open on Saturdays and will include the renewal of driving licences, vehicle disc licences, register motor vehicles, book driver/learner test, and other relevant services.
“We have received numerous service-related complaints at our licensing centres and it is high time that we improve services to the level that our customers deserve,”
“The high volumes of customers visiting our licensing centres means that we need to be innovative and upgrade our centres, we want our customers to get a corporate service as paying customers would expect anywhere else”
Michael Sun has also confirmed that they plan to remove the people “touting” around the licensing departments.
He has urged the public to monitor the Public Safety department’s social media pages as they will be updated shortly to indicate which centres will be open on Saturdays.
