Comment on the proposed permanent road closures and bus stop locations in Wynberg

<span> <h2 class="sectHeading">About</h2></span> <p> We are proposing permanent full or partial closure of certain roads in Wynberg to accommodate the Wynberg road couplet. </p><p> The couplet will use Brodie and Main Road to create a set of parallel one-way streets, which will:</p><ul><li>double the road capacity for general traffic; </li><li>cater for future MyCiTi services; and </li><li>help revitalise the Wynberg central business district.</li></ul><p>We will configure the couplet by converting the section of Main Road (M4) - between Riverstone Road (M152) and Kemms Road - into a one-way, two-lane carriageway serving traffic in a southerly direction towards Plumstead. </p><p> For traffic in the opposite direction, we will build a new one-way, northbound two-lane road by extending Brodie Road and reconfiguring Glaren and Tenby Roads. </p><p>Council previously approved the road couplet scheme (2002) as well as the concept design of trunk routes for Phase 2A of MyCiTi’s bus service to provide safe, quality, rapid and direct public transport linking Wynberg with Mitchells Plain, Khayelitsha and Claremont (2016 and 2019). </p><p>Construction should commence in the next two to three years. </p><p>In terms of Section 17 of the Local Government: Municipal Systems Act, Act 32 of 2000, you can submit comments to the municipality in respect of the proposed road closures and future MyCiTi bus stop locations. </p><ul><li><a href="https://resource.capetown.gov.za/documentcentre/Documents/Forms%2c%20notices%2c%20tariffs%20and%20lists/W6_Road_Closures_Wynberg_Advert.pdf" target="_blank">Access the advert</a></li><li><a href="https://resource.capetown.gov.za/documentcentre/Documents/City%20strategies%2c%20plans%20and%20frameworks/W6_Road_Closures_Wynberg_Map.pdf" target="_blank">Access the draft design plan</a><br></li></ul><h2 class="sectHeading">Public information day</h2><p>Join us at a public information day to find out more.</p> <span> <div class="mobile-scroll"><br> <table><thead><tr><th>Date</th><th>Time</th><th>Venue</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>18 April<br></td><td>14:00 - 19:00<br></td><td>Wittebome Civic Centre, Wynberg</td></tr><tr><td>20 April<br></td><td>14:00 - 19:00<br></td><td>Alphen Centre, Constantia<br></td></tr></tbody></table></div></span> <h2 class="sectHeading">Submit your comment</h2><p>Owners of properties bordering the affected street or a portion thereof may submit their objections with a detailed motivation.</p> <span> <div class="notification with-heading dark-copy pink bg-light-grey"><div class="graphic with-border"> <i class="info remember"></i> </div><div class="desc"><h4>Remember</h4><p>Quote the unique reference number corresponding to the road closure/stop that you object to. <a href="https://resource.capetown.gov.za/documentcentre/Documents/Forms%2c%20notices%2c%20tariffs%20and%20lists/PROPOSED_ROAD_CLOSURES_AND_BUS_STOP_LOCATIONS-WYNBERG.pdf" target="_blank">View a list of affected roads/bus stop locations with reference numbers</a>.<br></p></div></div></span> <p>You may submit your comments and objections via the following channels:</p><p> <strong>Online</strong><br> <a href="https://www.capetown.gov.za/_layouts/15/WebFeedback.SharePoint/webfeedback.aspx?id=%20436becbe-e11c-4230-80dd-5f0041563208" target="_blank">Submit your comments online</a>. </p><p> <strong>Delivery</strong><br> Deliver your comments by hand to:</p><p> <em>Subcouncil 20 office </em><br><em>Alphen Centre</em><br><em>Constantia Main Road</em><br><em>Constantia</em></p> <span> <div class="notification with-heading dark-copy pink bg-light-grey"><div class="graphic with-border"> <i class="info note"></i> </div><div class="desc"><h4>Please note</h4><p> Our Public Participation Unit will assist you if you would like to submit comments but have a disability, or are unable to read or write.
