 Blouberg Municipality Mayor Cllr Maria Thamaga

Under the steadfast leadership of Mayor Cllr Maria Thamaga, the Blouberg Municipality is undergoing a remarkable transformation.

As a proud member of the African National Congress (ANC), Mayor Thamaga has been instrumental in driving development projects that are changing the lives of residents in meaningful ways.

Her commitment to delivering real change is evident in every aspect of the municipality's projects, from the construction of new infrastructure to the provision of essential services.

One of the most significant projects is the construction of a game-changing 132/22kV substation in Senwabarwana, which is now in its third phase. This major investment will not only ease the burden on the local Eskom station but also provide reliable electricity to surrounding villages, powering homes and spurring local business growth.

The substation is a critical component of the municipality's efforts to improve the quality of life for residents and create a conducive environment for economic development.

In addition to the substation, the municipality has also made significant strides in transport infrastructure. The 2.72km Bosehla–Thalane access road and stormwater control works are already 65% complete, with paving, kerbs, and sidewalks taking shape.

Expected to be completed in October 2025, this project will unlock safer and faster mobility for residents, making it easier for them to access essential services, get to work, and transport goods.

The municipality has also delivered clean and safe water to over 1,051 households in Madoana and Mashoana villages through two completed water projects.

Beyond meeting a fundamental human right, these initiatives have created over 40 temporary jobs for local residents, keeping economic benefits within the community.

This is a testament to the municipality's commitment to creating opportunities for local residents and stimulating economic growth. Mayor Thamaga's leadership and commitment to development are evident in every aspect of these projects.

As a leader who is dedicated to delivering real change, she has ensured that the municipality's projects are designed to meet the needs of the community, create jobs, and stimulate economic growth.

Her vision for Blouberg's future is one of prosperity, growth, and development, and she is working tirelessly to make that vision a reality.

The ANC's leadership in Blouberg Municipality is proving that when the party is in charge, communities move forward. Under Mayor Thamaga's guidance, the municipality is rolling out high-impact projects that are answering the cries of residents, strengthening the local economy, and restoring dignity to communities.
