City to resurface various roads in Southern and Atlantic Seaboard areas
09 November 2020
The City of Cape Town’s Transport Directorate will, for the next three weeks, be resurfacing various roads in the Southern and Atlantic Seaboard areas. The work is scheduled to commence today, 9 November 2020.
The resurfacing is part of routine maintenance work and will take place between 07:00 and 17:00, Monday to Friday, pending unforeseen delays and weather conditions. Traffic moving in both directions will be affected and flag personnel will manage traffic by means of a stop-and-go system, one direction at a time. Work areas will be demarcated to regulate traffic flow as well as pedestrians.
‘Residents will be allowed to park their vehicles in driveways as usual, if and when access is available. However, vehicles parked in the road and obstructing the maintenance work, will be moved or towed away,’ said the City’s Mayoral Committee Member for Transport, Alderman Felicity Purchase.
The following roads and streets are affected:
Ave St Leon, Bantry Bay
Baris Road, Walmer Estate
Bay Road, Mouille Point
Chester Road, Walmer Estate
Coronation Road, Walmer Estate
Glengariff Road, Three Anchor Bay
Hill Road, Green Point
Hofmeyr Road, Three Anchor Bay
London Road, Observatory
Norwich Avenue, Observatory
Ravine Road, Bantry Bay
Ritchie Street, Walmer Estate
Romney Street, Green Point
‘Roadworks always come with some level of inconvenience and although no congestion is anticipated with these works, we advise road users to consider alternative routes to avoid disappointment. We also want to appeal to the residents and motorists to comply with the signage in place during the construction period to ensure that the work proceeds unhindered. This will help us deliver the service that will improve the conditions of our roads and give residents better access to their areas. Therefore, I want to thank the residents in advance for their patience and cooperation.’
Residents are reminded to call the Transport Information Centre (TIC) for more information and/or logging complaints about road infrastructure. The TIC can be contacted on 0800 65 64 63. It is available 24/7 and is toll-free from a landline or a cell phone. In so doing, they will greatly assist the City to ensure efficient service delivery.
