Over the past few months Queens Street in Kensington Johannesburg, has seen a marked deterioration. A lot of this deterioration is due to the fact that the street has not been maintained - the road surface has deteriorated dramatically, the drainage system is in decline and pavements are deteriorating weekly. As residents we are concerned about the state of Queens Street, and petition the Johannesburg Metropolitan Council to take some action to reverse this deterioration as a matter of urgency.
