'Our road network is one of Cape Town's biggest assets. It keeps people, goods and services moving. For this reason, it is vital that we do all we can to prolong the longevity of the roads, and in this case – we are doing so in an industrial area to facilitate and enhance economic activity.

'I'm pleased that we will be working on a number of roads in the residential and industrial area. We want to complete the work as soon as possible and I want to thank residents and businesses for their patience and support while work is under way,' said the City's Mayoral Committee Member for Urban Mobility, Councillor Rob Quintas.
