Subject: RE: Traffic Signalisation-Spine Road, Strandfontein, near the intersection of Spine and Camp Road
Dear Alesia
Thanks for your mail.
We agreed to get the new consultants to redo the counts as it is likely the previous counts were done last year when travel patterns were not entirely normal. The school are in Strandfontein and there are learners crossing the road.
However, we cannot make a decision without proper motivation, etc. We need to be able to validate why we are spending more than R500K on a pedestrian crossing at this location and for what number of pedestrian.
Due to the consultant tender dispute, we anticipate an appointment in July but don’t hold me to that as these disputes can drag on.
Kind Regards
Tim de Villiers

Subject: Accident this morning Cnr. Birkenhead and Spine
Dear Tim,
This is the reason why we need the traffic signalling at Birkenhead and Spine to avoid this.
The issue there is people coming into Spine do not get a chance to do so safely.
After waiting too long they take a gap and that is when accidents often happen.
Kind regards
