Langenhoven Park exploding


Langenhoven Park is no doubt the fastest growing formal residential area in the Free State, standing at present at some 6 200 households consisting of some 4 500 townhouses and 1 700 houses. This accounts for a population of some 18 000. By comparison, the population of a medium-sized town like Parys is, without the township, some 4 500 households and a population of some 14 000. This explosion at Langenhoven Park is placing tremendous strain on infrastructure such as streets, sewerage and electricity. This photo of peak hour traffic progressing bumper to bumper from Jan Spies Street towards Bloemfontein proper, was taken this early autumn with a slight drizzle coming down.
