The City of Cape Town is currently doing roadworks in Plantation Road, Ottery, between Wetton and Ferness roads.

The resurfacing of the roads is estimated to be completed by Friday 27 November if there are no delays.

The work is being done between 09:00 and 15:30, Sunday to Friday. Night work is scheduled from 20:00 until 04:30.

The work also involves the relaying of kerbs and channels, removal and reinstatement of plastic bollards and repairing the southbound lane between Bamboesvlei and Furness roads. Once completed, new road markings will be applied to improve road safety and visibility.

Rob Quintas, Mayco member for urban mobility, expressed his gratitude to residents and road users.

“Thank you to all the residents, road users and business owners in Ottery for their patience and cooperation during the course of this roadworks. The City’s roads infrastructure management team is working hard to keep Cape Town moving on good quality roads. To facilitate the work partial lane closures may be in place. Motorists are advised to plan their journeys accordingly and use alternative routes where possible to minimise delays.”

Quintas said he was pleased to see a few local residents, who are registered on the job seekers’ database, working on the project.

“I encourage unemployed residents to visit their local Sub-council offices to register on the City’s jobseeker database as well.”
