Resurfacing roadworks in Crawford

01 October 2024

The City of Cape Town’s Urban Mobility Directorate wants to advise residents, road users and businesses of the resurfacing of various roads in the Crawford area. The roadworks start today, 1 October 2024, until Tuesday, 19 November 2024, weather permitting and provided there are no unforeseen delays. Work will be done between 07:00 and 17:00, Monday to Friday.

Below are the exact points where the roadworks start and end in Crawford:

Clive Road between Camberwell Road and Lawson Road
St Kilda between Bridge Way and Gordon Road
Sunnyside Road between Kromboom Road and Camberwell Road
Rokeby Road between Kromboom Road and Camberwell Road
Camberwell Road between Sunnyside Road and Rokeby Road
Lawson Road between Clive Road and Riversdale Road
Alexander Road between Clive Road and St Kilda Road

The resurfacing work to be done entails raising manholes, catchpits, frames and chambers where required to make them flush with the road. Damaged manholes, catchpits, frames and chambers, will also be replaced where required.

The road maintenance includes the resurfacing of the existing road layer with asphalt and all existing road markings will be re-instated with road marking paint.

'As we kick off Transport Month today, we are proud to be bringing this rehabilitation and maintenance project to the Crawford community. This work is to ensure that we prolong the longevity of the City's road network, improve road safety conditions and keep Capetonians moving. I would like to thank the public and road users for their patience and support over the next few weeks. Wherever possible, please consider taking alternative routes. Motorists who need to use these roads where work is under way, are advised to adhere to all temporary road signs in the area,' said the City's Mayoral Committee Member for Urban Mobility, Councillor Rob Quintas.
