Ekurhuleni Wards At A Glance
The City of Ekurhuleni has 112 wards for 2026, the same number as in 2021. Comparing the Municipal Demarcation Board’s 2026 and 2021 ward maps, 29 wards have the same boundaries, 58 have minor changes and 25 have been redrawn more noticeably.
Ekurhuleni stretches from Tembisa and OR Tambo International Airport in the north to Nigel, Duduza and Vosloorus in the south. The area groups below are for easy reading and are not the City’s official customer care regions.
How To Read The Ward Tables
- Main areas covered: suburbs, townships and extensions that fall mostly or entirely inside the ward, using Stats SA’s official place names. “(part)” means only part of that area is in the ward, so neighbours in the same suburb may vote in different wards. Newer developments built after 2011 may not be named, so confirm with the IEC.
- AH stands for agricultural holdings, and “Ext” for extension.
- Boundary since 2021: compares the 2026 ward with the ward of the same number used in 2021. “Same” means the boundary is effectively unchanged, “Minor changes” means small adjustments, and “Redrawn” means the ward now covers a noticeably different area. Where a ward was redrawn, we show which old ward or wards most of it came from.
- The area lists are a guide for residents. They are not an official IEC record.
