Different group that one. Was specifically referring to the Mosley one. I know of Northpark, Hatton and a few others , yours appears to be for Pine Ridge.

Oh ok. Probably the group you're in is made by the NW

They started work on Winston Churchill and Jellicoe this week...

The pink mesh is all over the place there now.

Vuma Reps

So I had the Vuma reps in the area again last night, this time was to discuss the location of the box on the boundary wall. The rep said that the trenching should start in 2 to 3 weeks time. I am in Moseley area.

Yeah, they should be done in Ashley/Pinelands in the next 2 weeks.... hoping they don't screw up my driveway TOO much...

The guy I spoke to said they do all the trenching and then they have a "team" that comes after them and sorts out verge's and driveways.

Yeah, got the same story... and honestly I'm good with it...

I just have a steepish driveway, and if there is a huge ditch across it whilst they're working the SO will get a tad agro...

What I would like to know is from our boundary wall (wooden fence) to our house is about 30m under paving and through walls. The closest point would be to our lounge and not where all my current equipment (routers and firewalls) are currently. Do the fibre guys always have to run it to the closest point to the boundary box?

That is my question as well really..

I want the outside box in a specific place, and I would LIKE the internal box to be in a specific room as well, but its easily 20m from the boundary wall...

Sounds like that "Business Forum" BS rearing its head... why they haven't been arrested just baffles me.

There's currently a "discussion" between Vuma and some "people" at one of the intersections. Metro on scene as well now.

From the NW.

Something is going on corner of Dilkoosh and Wirtz. I think Vuma in discussion with a group of people. Metro on scene.

Please be aware traffic congestion corner of Dilkoosh and Wirtz. Metro on scene. Traffic is a stop and go at the moment.

Damn, that's bad.
I just hope they finish what they started. This is ideal for criminals.

They had just marked our road this week. I see Blue for water and I assume red for power.

Yes, that's it. Certain areas in Pinetown have been having lots of issues due to the infrastructure being very old. Water Pipes in particular.
