Signs put up to remind customers where the temporary market is located.
Vendors from the Tongaat Morning Market have raised concerns over difficult trading conditions after being relocated to the Pension Cottage sports grounds while renovations are carried out at the longstanding Plain Street market.
According to vendor Pravin Gopal, they were informed in April that the market would temporarily close to allow for renovations, but uncertainty over alternative trading arrangements led to delays in the move.
"We were issued with the first notice on April 25, that the market would temporarily close due to scheduled renovations, scheduled to start on May 4. However, we could not adhere to the notice because no alternative trading space was provided," said Gopal.
"Since then, the notice was extended weekly until May 23, which was our last trading day at the market."
