Repairers and tyre shops in Alberton
Alrode is the engine room of Alberton: one of the larger industrial areas on the East Rand, home to manufacturers, transport yards, engineering works and the tyre and wheel workshops that serve them. Trucks leave Alrode for the R59 towards the Vaal and the N3, so truck tyre repair and roadside call-outs are a big part of local trade. In the suburbs, Meyersdal and Brackenhurst sit on the slopes of the Klipriviersberg, where steep streets and estate kerbs scrape mags. New Redruth and the roads near the town centre hold fitment centres and mag repair shops. Brackendowns and Thokoza bring commuter and taxi work. Summer storms can open potholes on the older roads overnight.
