Resolution detail
RESOLVED that having considered the City of Cape Town Traffic Calming Policy and the recommendation from Transport Planning & Network Management Department;
-
Gladiolus Avenue is a Class 5 Local Street located within a medium-density residential area of Devil’s Peak Estate.
-
Our assessment indicated that Gladiolus Close Park is located along Gladiolus Avenue, which may attract vulnerable pedestrian activity across the study roadway.
-
Therefore, the potential for pedestrian/vehicle conflict along Gladiolus Avenue can be considered high and compliant with Section 7(3) of the Traffic Calming Policy.
-
We recommend the implementation of two speed humps along Gladiolus Avenue, in the vicinity of the Gladiolus Close Park.
-
The above recommendations are illustrated in DRAWING 4620/TNDC3871/01
