💨 Abstract

Johannesburg's street lights are frequently non-functioning due to a combination of operational, logistical, and criminal factors. Theft and vandalism, particularly for valuable components like aerial bundle cables, are the main challenges. Criminal syndicates sell stolen electricity to local homes and businesses, causing widespread outages and infrastructure damage. Finding and repairing faults can be challenging due to the need for specialized equipment and coordination with other departments.
