City encourages public to attend the Bo-Kaap Informal Trading Facility Open Day
28 June 2023
The City of Cape Town is urging Capetonians to share their views on the proposed Bo-Kaap Informal Trading Facility.
The proposed Bo-Kaap Informal Trading Facility will be located at the corner of Yusuf Drive and Pentz Street and will be a key contributor to the tourist appeal of the area. As such, the proposed trade on this site would create further economic opportunities for the community and attract more tourists to Bo-Kaap.
The suggested market will include 12 trading bays, an office, toilets and a store room.
