Mayor welcomes Port of Cape Town inclusion in RFI for private sector partnershipsMayor welcomes Port of Cape Town inclusion in RFI for private sector partnerships<img alt="" src="https://resource.capetown.gov.za/cityassets/PublishingImages/Former%20Mayors%20Header.jpg" style="BORDER:0px solid;" />Cape Town Mayor Geordin Hill-Lewis has welcomed the Port of Cape Town’s inclusion in government’s Request For Information (RFI) process <p>‘We are relieved to see the Port of Cape Town’s inclusion in government’s testing of market appetite for private sector involvement. The City has been making this case to national government for some time, and I am grateful to Minister Barbara Creecy for following through on her commitment. This is a positive step towards enabling the level of infrastructure investment and expertise needed to co-run the port successfully. According to the World Bank, Cape Town port is the least efficient in the world, and is a real handbrake on the regional economy and job creation. We need to urgently see private investment and management in the Cape Town port to release this handbrake and speed up job creation in Cape Town.  <br> <br>‘There is huge potential for job-creating economic growth if we can establish our port as a regional shipment hub of choice and turn its reputation around as one of the worst in the world for inefficiency. We are encouraged by government’s short deadline of August 2025 to enter into the formal procurement phase for private partners, and the Development Bank of Southern Africa’s involvement in setting up the coordinating unit to get private partnerships done. We must make sure these timelines are not delayed,’ said Mayor Hill-Lewis.</p><p>Research from the Western Cape Department of Economic Development and Tourism indicates that private sector participation at the Port of Cape Town could result in an additional R6 billion in exports, the creation of approximately 20 000 jobs, and over R1,6 billion in additional tax revenues within five years. </p><p>Mayoral Committee Member for Economic Growth, Alderman James Vos, said major infrastructure investment is needed to reduce the impact of wind on port operations. This has been a key concern expressed by business leaders during the City’s industry engagements. </p><p>‘When the port is unable to operate sufficiently, exporters are forced to divert their goods to other ports in Durban, Gqeberha and elsewhere at huge costs. The private sector has the services and the expertise and have shown they are willing to assist as much as possible. We will be closely monitoring the RFI process, which we hope will lead to the full-scale joint running of the Port with private partners, as well as a major infrastructure investment boost. The City stands ready as a partner to expedite any infrastructure investment within our local government purview,’ said Alderman Vos. </p><p><br>End</p>2025-03-23T22:00:00Z1
Weather shifts gears: 39% increase in motor vehicle accidentsWeather shifts gears: 39% increase in motor vehicle accidents<img alt="" src="https://resource.capetown.gov.za/cityassets/PublishingImages/City%20news.jpg" style="BORDER:0px solid;" />​The Public Emergency Communication Centre recorded 57 motor vehicle and pedestrian accidents in 48 hours compared to 41 the previous weekend.<p>The Public Emergency Communication Centre recorded 1 629 incidents over the weekend, including 80 assault cases, 50 domestic violence incidents and 206 noise nuisances.</p><p>However, it was the increase in motor vehicle accidents compared to the previous weekend that caught the eye. </p><p>In one of the latest incidents on Sunday, 23 March, a taxi caused a collision involving four other motor vehicles at Jakes Gerwel Drive and Viking Way. </p><p>Nine passengers in the taxi and a child in one of the other vehicles all sustained minor injuries. </p><p>The taxi driver was arrested on charges of driving under the influence, as well as reckless and negligent driving. </p><p>‘The change in weather combined with poor driving habits and a lack of patience likely all contributed to the increase in motor vehicle accidents. Let’s not forget vehicle defects like balding tyres and brakes, and worn wipers – all things that can compromise safety on the roads. Please let this be a cautionary tale as we brace for winter and get your vehicles checked timeously to ensure they’re able to deal with the changing road conditions. Some motorists would also do well to check their attitudes and behaviour on the roads, or run the risk of ending up behind bars,’ said the City’s Mayoral Committee Member for Safety and Security, Alderman JP Smith.</p><p>In general enforcement in the past week, the Traffic Service made 24 arrests – 15 for driving under the influence of alcohol, four for  reckless and negligent driving and five for other offences. Officers also recorded 41 986 offences, impounded 248 public transport vehicles and executed 884 warrants of arrest.</p><p>Their Law Enforcement counterparts arrested 184 suspects and issued 7 323 notices, while Metro Police officers made 114 arrests, including 30 for driving under the influence, and issued 3 876 fines for traffic and by-law transgressions. </p><p>Residents are reminded to report criminal activities by phoning the City’s Public Emergency Communication Centre on 021 480 7700 from a cellphone and 107 from a landline. </p><p><br>End</p>2025-03-23T22:00:00Z1
