City to commence with resurfacing in Brackenfell and Durbanville

18 November 2022

The City’s Urban Mobility Directorate will resurface the section of Race Course Road from Jip De Jager to Hoog Street in Durbanville. Road resurfacing will also be done on Okavango Road from the intersection with Brighton Road to the intersection with De Bron Road / Marlborough Street.  Work on both of these projects is set to commence on Monday, 21 November 2022 and is anticipated to conclude by Friday, 27 January 2023. 

The work is planned to take place on weekdays only, from 09:00 to 15:30 to limit the impact on road users. Work will be suspended on 15 December 2022 for the builders' break and will resume on 15 January 2023.

'We ask that the community please cooperate with our team on the ground while the project is ongoing. We would like to resurface these portions of the road to provide residents in the area with a safe and smooth road surface. We have measures in place to help direct residents during the construction period and we urge all road users to please comply,' said the City's Mayoral Committee Member for Urban Mobility, Councillor Rob Quintas.

The City's Road Infrastructure Management Department will be milling out the existing road surfacing and replacing it with a new asphalt road surface. This work forms part of regular maintenance to prolong the longevity of the city's road network.
