​A team consisting of administrative staff, prosecutors, and traffic officers will be on the Concourse Level of the Cape Town Civic Centre to assist motorists with their fines and warrants of arrests. The public will also be presented with an opportunity to make enquiries on outstanding fines, and to settle outstanding fines and warrants. Prosecutors will be on standby to consider their representations and cashiers will be available to take payments in settlement of fines.

‘The purpose of the roadshow is to provide a convenient one-stop shop to the public to sort out their outstanding fines once and for all. I encourage motorists to take advantage of the opportunity to clear their record, especially ahead of the upcoming holiday season when motorists find themselves on the road more often. We believe these roadshows also provide an opportunity for open communication between the public and officials from the City’s Traffic Service and Legal Services,’ said the City’s Mayoral Committee Member for Corporate Services, Councillor Sharon Cottle.

Motorists are reminded to bring their identity documents, as well as a copy of the fines for which they would like to make representations.

It is important to note that there will be no blanket reduction; each representation will be considered on its own merits by our prosecutors.
