Public invited to workshops about spatial vision for Spine Road Development Corridor
27 February 2025
The City of Cape Town is hosting three workshops about the draft local spatial development framework for the Spine Road Development Corridor in Khayelitsha next month, with the first workshop happening on 5 March 2025. These engagements form part of the public participation process where residents, businesses, and interested parties have the opportunity to comment and help shape the spatial vision for Spine Road and surrounds. All are invited to submit feedback by 22 April 2025.
The Spine Road Development Corridor includes the section of Spine Road from just before the intersection with Japhta K Masemola Road in the east to the intersection with Mew Way in the west, and the areas adjacent to this major route amongst which Ilitha Park, Eyethu, Khaya, Ekuphumleni, Mandela Park and Sabata Dalindyebo Square.
‘I encourage residents to attend at least one of these workshops and collaborate with us. Officials from our Urban Planning and Design Department will be present to answer questions, and engage attendees. The intention of these engagements is to further refine the spatial vision, which is to guide sustainable development along this corridor in a manner that supports economic growth, and improves mobility, environmental sustainability and resilience to the impacts of climate change,’ said the City’s Deputy Mayor and Mayoral Committee Member for Spatial Planning and Environment, Alderman Eddie Andrews.
Details of the public workshops are as follows:
