Maintenance Programme The Department has noted and is concerned with the

absence of the various maintenance programmmes. These programmmes can be categorized into 3 areas:

– Day to day maintenance– Scheduled preventative maintenance– Emergency maintenance

An effective maintenance plan will enhance the asset at the same time it will contribute to effective utilization of infrastructure funding.
