Full phase 1 

The full phase 1 will complete the Atlantis Corridor and link areas of economic activity and public services. The priority will be to facilitate greater access to the system using the airport as a hub between the densely populated south east section of the city and areas of high economic activity across the Peninsula. The timeframe for the full Phase 1 depends on securing additional funding from national government and internal sources, and the City is working hard to achieve this.

Within the West Coast area the plan is to add roadway along Boundary Road, Koeberg Road, Montague Drive, and Bosmansdam Road to create greater mobility throughout this rapidly developing industrial, commercial and residential area. There will also be links to key destinations, including Montague Gardens, Century City and the Joe Slovo informal settlement, near Milnerton.

With the airport as a hub, the plan is to open up links with destinations across the Peninsula, including Century City and Table View, Bellville and Durbanville, Somerset West and Gordon’s Bay, and the southern suburbs.
