Vehicles and driving in Welkom

Welkom grew up as the centre of the Free State goldfields and is known for its wide, planned streets and many traffic circles. Gold mining has scaled down over the years, but mines, contractors and engineering workshops still run fleets of bakkies, underground support vehicles and trucks that need specialised electrical maintenance. Surrounding maize and sunflower farms depend on tractors and harvesters during the planting and harvest seasons. Welkom's dry heat in summer and sharp frost in winter both take their toll on batteries. Taxis linking the town with Thabong, Odendaalsrus and Virginia also keep auto electricians busy.

Can an auto electrician come to me in Welkom?

What should I do before the auto electrician arrives?
