The City of Cape Town’s Road Infrastructure Management Department will commence with the resurfacing of a section of Gordon’s Bay Road between Main Road and Beach Road in Strand this coming week. The roadworks are scheduled to take place over the next six weeks, if all goes as planned.

‘The team is ready to start with the resurfacing work of Gordon’s Bay Road in Strand this week, this is an important link between Gordon’s Bay and the Strand CBD area so I am glad to hear it is receiving this important maintenance work. The department has made good progress with the resurfacing of Beach Road in Strand as well, and I am looking forward to seeing the fresh looking Beach Road soon,’ said the City’s Mayoral Committee Member for Urban Mobility, Councillor Rob Quintas.

The City anticipates the resurfacing of this portion of Gordon’s Bay Road to take approximately six weeks and to be completed before the end of June 2022 pending unforeseen delays.

The work forms part of regular maintenance to prolong the longevity of the city’s road network and will take place from Monday to Friday between 09:00 and 15:30; and on Saturdays throughout the day. Traffic moving in both directions will be affected.

The contractor will ensure that residents along this stretch have access to their properties at all times during the construction period. Commuters are advised to be cautious and to slow down when approaching the construction site. It is recommended that road users consider alternative routes if possible.

Should anyone park in the vicinity and obstruct the maintenance work, their vehicles will be moved away.
