City of Cape Town Traffic Calming Policy:
-
According to Section 7(1) (a), only Class 4 and Class 5 roads are subject to physical traffic calming measures.
-
Traffic calming measures should first and foremost be provided to protect the most vulnerable road users where they occur in the largest numbers. The roads adjacent to and leading to schools should therefore be the primary focus of the TND traffic calming programme.
-
According to Section 7(1) (d), Traffic calming measures may be implemented on a Class 5 Local Street in a residential area in the vicinity of public facilities.
Desktop Assessment
Brackenfell Boulevard is a Class 3 Secondary Arterial functioning as the primary “mobility” road.
Technical overview
-
On Minor Arterials (Class 3), Major Arterials (Class 2) and Principal Arterials (Class 1), which have the primary functions of mobility at reasonable speeds, the appropriate means to regulate drivers’ speeds is effective law enforcement. Physical traffic calming measures will not be used to regulate speed on these roads.

Traffic calming is therefore not warranted based on section 7(c) within the Traffic Calming Policy. Speed humps are not permissible on Class 3 roads.
