Johannesburg residents are so concerned about the running of the city they have banded together to stop the rot in the country's economic hub.
Under the banner of the Johannesburg Crisis Alliance, they met for a third time at the end of November in Mayfair to discuss the issues and potential solutions.
Many residents at the meeting were infrastructure experts who have worked in both the private and public sectors and have intimate knowledge of the city's issues and how to fix them.
