🚜 Bigger holes. Better equipment. Better results.

The size of the potholes we can tackle is growing day by day as our road repair programme continues to gain momentum.

What started with basic repairs is now allowing us to address some of the larger problem areas that have developed over the past few seasons.

A huge thank you to TRAC for their continued support of road repairs in Dullstroom. Partnerships like these help us make a real and lasting difference where it matters most.

Together we’re building better roads for our community, one repair at a time.

🚜 Another productive day on Lesedi Road!

The DDD team spent the day repairing potholes and improving one of the roads most affected by the rainy season.

✅ 10 potholes repaired so far
🔨 Many more still to go

Road repairs are never a quick fix, but with the dry winter months ahead we can finally start making real progress.

Thank you to everyone who supports DDD and helps keep these projects moving forward.

Winter Road Repair Season Begins 🚜

With the rainy season hopefully behind us, DDD is shifting gears and focusing on one of our key winter projects — road maintenance and repairs.

Many residents will have noticed the heaps of millings and tar that have been placed along several roads around town over the past few months. These materials were stockpiled in preparation for the dry season when road repairs can be carried out more effectively.

📍 Lesedi Road is the first area receiving attention.

Over the coming months we will be working through a number of problem areas, using the materials already positioned around town to improve road surfaces and address sections that have deteriorated during the wet season.

Road work is always weather dependent, but winter gives us the best opportunity to achieve lasting results.

A big thank you to everyone who supports DDD and helps make projects like these possible. Together we continue building a cleaner, safer and more welcoming Dullstroom.

🏛️ Dullstroom’s History Comes to Life

Good morning and a restful Sunday to our DDD community.

We are excited to share that the first three Heritage Walk plaques are now complete and ready for installation.

These plaques form part of the Dullstroom Heritage Walk, an initiative that will see 19 heritage sites identified and marked throughout town. Each plaque tells the story of a building, place or landmark that has played a role in shaping the Dullstroom we know today.

The project is a true community collaboration, and special thanks must go to:

👏 Mike and the Dullstroom Heritage Society for the historical research and content.
👏 Johann and Morgan for their creativity and design work.
👏 Everyone working behind the scenes to make the Heritage Walk a reality.

The first plaques feature:
• Dullstroom Inn
• Rose Cottage
• The Heritage Society Building

We believe preserving our history is just as important as building our future, and we cannot wait to see these plaques installed and enjoyed by residents and visitors alike.

Keep an eye out as the remaining plaques are completed and installed around town.

♻️ BIG step forward for recycling in Dullstroom ♻️

Today the new baler officially went to work at the recycling depot and wow… what a machine.

What surprised us most was just how much cardboard fits into a single bale. One bale is weighing in at around 300kg! 📦💪

This changes everything for storage, handling and transport of recyclable material in Dullstroom.

There are still a few things we need to improve the setup:
• A proper strapping machine
• Pallets for storage
• A pallet jack to move the bales around

But this is a massive leap forward and another example of what can be achieved when community organisations and local supporters work together.

A huge thank you to TRAC for helping make this possible.

Honestly, with the way things are growing, I truly believe Dullstroom will soon be in a position to process recycling not only from our town, but potentially from Belfast and Lydenburg as well. 🌍♻️

Exciting times ahead

What does a normal day at DDD actually look like? 🌱

Most people only see the finished projects, but behind the scenes there are constantly multiple teams, projects and ideas moving at the same time across Dullstroom.

🗑️ Today another waste bin was installed as part of the ongoing effort to keep the town cleaner.

♻️ We are also assisting with the installation of the new baler at Green Elephant Recycling. The machine unfortunately arrived with the incorrect phase motor, however the single-phase power pack is being fitted today. This is a very exciting step forward for recycling in Dullstroom and will greatly improve how recyclable material is processed and transported.

🌾 At Kruger Plein we currently have 5 bush cutters running full time. Between yesterday and today the team has already used close to 30 litres of fuel per day trying to bring the area under control, and they will most likely continue again tomorrow.

🚜 Work has also started on modifications to the trailer as preparations begin for Christmas in July.

🪧 The next two Heritage Walk plaques are nearly ready and should soon be added to the growing heritage route around town.

🧵 One of the projects we are especially excited about is the ladies sewing room at Epilepsy South Africa. With the assistance of Rebecca and the epilepsy team, the room has now finally been cleared out and prepared so that this entrepreneurial project can properly move forward.

DDD is never just one project. It is many small efforts happening simultaneously — all focused on improving Dullstroom one step at a time.

Thank you to everyone who continues supporting the work, whether through donations, encouragement, equipment, ideas or simply helping spread the word 😊

♻️ A fresh new look for Dullstroom ♻️

Keep an eye out for the new DDD litter bins being installed around town over the next few weeks.

With a cleaner, more modern design and our new logo proudly displayed, these bins are part of the ongoing effort to keep Dullstroom beautiful, welcoming and well maintained for residents and visitors alike.

Small details make a big difference 🌿

Thank you to everyone who continues to support DDD and the work being done throughout the community.
