‘We are committed to keeping our residents safe while on the road and Cape Town’s roads well-maintained. Preventative work and ongoing maintenance is crucial in prolonging the lifespan of our roads and footways. Once completed, the new footways will improve pedestrian safety.
‘On this note I want to stress that illegal sand mining and cable theft undermine the work that we do. When people dig footways open for illegal sand mining, or excavate footways to steal cables, the safety of our residents is compromised. I urge all to please report these illegal activities to the City and the South African Police Service,’ said the City’s Mayoral Committee Member for Urban Mobility, Councillor Rob Quintas.
