Otavi residents will heave a sigh of relief as roads, will be upgraded this year to address the pothole issue within the town centre and informal areas.

Otavi Mayor, Isaac !Hoaeb revealed that over N$700 000 has been set aside to refurbish the roads.

!Hoaeb says the upgrading of the roads will be done in many key areas as little or no upgrade has taken place for years now, adding improved road networks will attract investors to the town. 

The roads at the town will be refurbished with the assistance of Road Authority. 
!Hoaeb added Council will also fully utilize twinning agreements entered into with other local or international municipalities, to acquire engineers to help construct storm water drainage systems at Otavi.
