The City of Cape Town’s Road Infrastructure Management Department has announced a critical road maintenance project set to commence on September 17, 2023, in the suburb of Tokai. This project aims to improve the condition of roads and facilitate smoother traffic flow in the area.
To minimize traffic disruption, the roadworks will be carried out from Monday to Friday during specific time slots: 09:00 to 15:30 during the day, and 20:00 to 05:00 at night.
The roads earmarked for resurfacing include Steenberg Road, Orpen Road, and Firgrove Way.
The following tasks will be executed as part of the project:
– Trimming of overhead tree branches
– Relaying of kerb and channel
– Trimming of side drains (applicable to Firgrove Way only)
– Resurfacing of the roads with asphalt
– Reinstating road markings
The teams will conduct the asphalt resurfacing work at night on Steenberg Road, Orpen Road, and a portion of Firgrove Way. The remaining section of Firgrove Way will undergo resurfacing during the day.
Councillor Rob Quintas, the City’s Mayoral Committee Member for Urban Mobility, requested patience from the road users as the teams aim to complete the job as efficiently as possible.
The resurfacing work will be carried out under Stop/Go temporary traffic controls, with traffic accommodated in half-widths.
The road resurfacing project in Tokai reflects the city’s commitment to upholding the quality of its infrastructure and ensuring the safety and convenience of its residents. This vital maintenance endeavor seeks not only to improve the road conditions but also to enhance the overall driving experience for the community, making Tokai a more pleasant and navigable suburb for all.
