Major plans to raise the profile of Tshwane which includes Sunderland Ridge

The city of Tshwane has major plans to rejuvenate the greater Pretoria area through an Integrated Development Plan (IDP). This will see major projects being implemented in various areas, as well as government spending on regions that were seen to be neglected in recent times. This includes locations such as Sunderland Ridge an industrial area within the jurisdiction of Centurion which falls under the greater Tshwane area.

The Integrated Plan will be implemented through seven different regions within the area. Region 4 includes various suburbs and certain issues facing these areas have been noted so the integrated plans can be put in place.

For region 4 which includes Sunderland Ridge some of these highlighted issues include but not are limited to: The need for more areas for building schools. As well as addressing the issue of the occupation of illegal land use as well as various basic amenities within various communities which are necessary. The need to create more formal trading areas. Create adequate fencing for protected wetland areas to combat illegal dumping. Ensure that general maintenance of certain areas is met on a continuous basis including the trimming of grass. Address the housing crisis and the issue of informal settlements. Create more visible policing, especially in areas that are badly effected by crime. Addressing the issue of replacing broken or neglected signs and deploring more traffic police to help with traffic congestion. Make sure the storm water drains are well maintained. Address the need for more adequate public transport to and from certain pivotal residential and industrial areas to enable travel time is less for employees.
