Johannesburg: University of the Witwatersrandhttps://hdl.handle.net/10539/24645Submitted in fulfilment of the academic requirements for the degree of Honours in Urban and Regional Planning (Research Report) in the School of Architecture and Planning Faculty of Engineering and the Built Environment University of the Witwatersrand.The Post-Apartheid government has placed a great emphasis on the formulation and implementation of initiatives and programmes that seek to redress the effects of the Apartheid era. These ramifications include poverty and inequality, which limit people’s ability to be seen as equals in the nation. This research took on a qualitative methodological approach to finding out what effects infrastructural investment has had on the lived experiences of the inhabitants of a peripheral area called Winterveld(t) in the City of Tshwane. With the investment in infrastructure that occurs in the area should come an improvement in the social development of its inhabitants. This research has found that this is not necessarily the case in Winterveld(t). Many are unable to identify investments in infrastructure that have occurred in the area are have thus been unable to utilise them to better their lives.enLived experiencesInfrastructural investmentWinterveld, City of TshwaneSocial development--South Africa--Tshwane City, WinterveldRedressing apartheid effetsHonours Reports
