LOOK: Hole in Centurion sparks fears of new sinkhole
Updated | By Breakfast with Martin Bester
Centurion residents are concerned that yet another sinkhole is forming in the area.

A hole that has appeared on DF Malan Avenue in Lyttelton, Centurion, has raised alarms among local residents.
The hole first started forming on Tuesday, February 18, and has since grown significantly, prompting immediate action from Tshwane metro officials and a geologist.

Experts are currently assessing the formation to determine its size, extent, and whether it qualifies as a sinkhole.
"Further investigations are underway to establish if it is a sinkhole or a road subsidence."

"The area was secured with barriers yesterday afternoon," he said.

According to Pretoria Rekord, residents have expressed their concerns about the frequency of such occurrences.
"The increasing number of sinkholes in Centurion is troubling," said Nathaniel Scheepers.
