Kransbank Community Hall Almost Complete

A hall is soon to be completed for the Kransbank community to use for formal communal meetings, festive occasions and social events. The hall is being constructed by a black-owned, local contracting company and the design and construction of the facility was overseen by Kangra. The hall will be able to host around 150 people once completed.

The community has until now been running its community meetings and social gatherings in open areas and under trees, which has exposed them to the heat, cold, wind and rain.

“The community asked Kangra to assist them in being able to conduct their forums in dignity, which is where the idea for the construction of the hall arose,” explains Community Liaison Officer Simo Yende, adding that the official handover of the hall – which cost around R300 000 to build – is anticipated to take place shortly.
