Swakopmund Mayor Suamma Kautondokwa has described the festive season as busy but successful, with the town once again proving to be a safe and welcoming tourist destination.

Henties Bay took a step forward in its economic and social development with the official opening of a new open market, taxi rank, low-cost housing, and the unveiling of the town’s first traffic lights.

The Wagdaar informal settlement on the outskirts of Swakopmund received two new solar high mast light towers.

These towers, donated by Swakop Uranium for N$800,000, will illuminate the streets, creating a brighter, more welcoming environment and addressing growing concerns over crime after dark.

The coastal town of Henties Bay is facing mounting social and infrastructure challenges as the once-small town continues to grow at an unprecedented pace.
