🌉 Welisizwe Bridges: Connecting Communities in the Free State

The Department of Public Works and Infrastructure has handed over Welisizwe Bridges in the Free State, strengthening safe and reliable access to schools, clinics, markets and economic opportunities.

«“Bridge by bridge, we are connecting communities, expanding rural mobility and building a more inclusive South Africa.” 🇿🇦»

With 14 bridges completed in the province, the programme is also creating employment opportunities, including through the Expanded Public Works Programme (EPWP), while transferring skills and supporting local SMMEs.

Government continues to work with communities and partners to address infrastructure backlogs, improve rural connectivity and create opportunities for local communities.

EPWP Participants Qualify as Boilermaker Artisans! 🎓

After years of dedication, hard work and perseverance, 11 EPWP participants from Phuthaditjhaba in the Free State have successfully completed their Boilermaking qualification and passed their Trade Test.

The journey began in 2021, when 15 participants enrolled in a three-year Boilermaking programme implemented by the Department of Public Works and Infrastructure (DPWI) in partnership with Maluti TVET College and funded through the National Skills Fund via AgriSETA.

Despite delays caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, the participants remained committed and pushed through to the finish line.

The success continues: Four of the qualified participants have already secured permanent employment as boilermakers in the private sector.

Their achievement demonstrates how skills development through EPWP can equip participants with valuable technical skills, qualifications and pathways towards sustainable employment.

👏 Congratulations to the 11 newly qualified artisans!

From EPWP participation to artisan qualification and employment — skills open doors.
