We are aiming to complete the required repair work in time for the festive season. The pool will remain open to the public during this time. However, access to the parking area and the slipway turning circle may be temporarily restricted to accommodate the movement of heavy construction machinery on site. </div><div><br></div><div>This emergency project will permit us to make temporary repairs to the failed sections of the stepped revetment, as well to the damaged stone pitching retaining wall around the tidal pool. The repairs will improve the experience of all visitors to the tidal pool over the summer season, and will serve to extend the design life of this coastal asset until a permanent solution can be implemented.</div><div><br></div><div>‘We thank members of the public for their patience as we conduct these essential repairs. The City is committed to maintaining quality coastal recreational facilities where communities can gather to relax in a safe and welcoming space,’ said Alderman Eddie Andrews, the Deputy Mayor and Mayoral Committee Member for Spatial Planning and Environment.</div><div><br><br></div><p><br></p> | 2022-11-10T22:00:00Z | GP0|#1d539e44-7c8c-4646-887d-386dc1d95d70;L0|#01d539e44-7c8c-4646-887d-386dc1d95d70|City news;GTSet|#62efe227-07aa-45e7-944c-ceebacca891d | | | | | GP0|#54b0824f-da8b-424e-83ec-5aacf1534591;L0|#054b0824f-da8b-424e-83ec-5aacf1534591|tidal pools;GTSet|#2e3de6c1-9951-4747-8f53-470629a399bb;GP0|#f4a32fc0-02eb-46db-aab0-3908011ce44a;L0|#0f4a32fc0-02eb-46db-aab0-3908011ce44a|Coastal management;GTSet|#2e3de6c1-9951-4747-8f53-470629a399bb | 1 | | | | | | | | | | Media Office, City of Cape Town | 0 |
