A Significant Milestone: Western Cape High Court Greenlights New Road Construction for Masiphumelele
The Western Cape High Court has approved the construction of a new road connecting Masiphumelele to the wider Noordhoek area, which will provide better access to essential amenities and emergency services, reduce traffic volumes, and counteract flooding risks. The road project, which had been delayed for almost eight years, is expected to bring relief to the community and enhance mobility and selfdetermination. While there were environmental concerns, the City has committed to mitigating any harmful impacts on wetlands and leopard toads, and the project is seen as a beacon of hope for a brighter future.
