Resolution detail
UNANIMOUSLY RESOLVED that:
a) it be SUPPORTED that having considered the Traffic Calming Policy, the Transport Department does not regard a raised traffic calming measure as warranted for the following reasons:
(i) Camps Bay Drive is a class 3 primary arterial that connects the City to Camps Bay and is a tourist route, hence the mobility function must be protected
(ii) Camps Bay Drive is a public transport route, carries IRT busses and emergency vehicles
(iii) Bollards cannot be permitted next to a mobility roadway as they are hazards to traffic
b) Transport Department’s recommendation that traffic enforcement be undertaken by the Traffic Manager BE APPROVED.
