The repair work on Boyes Drive, which recommenced on 22 March 2012, has been delayed and will not be completed by 27 March 2012 as previously communicated. Work will be completed on Friday 30 March 2012, weather permitting.
The work has been delayed due to the contractor experiencing problems with the delivery of rubber bitumen by the supplier. This has had a negative effect on productivity. Two additional minor sections have also been added and this work has to be undertaken separately as it is on different ends of Boyes Drive.
While the work is being undertaken, a temporary one-way system for northbound traffic is in place between 09:00 to 16:00 for the section of road from Clairvaux Road to Old Boyes Drive.
During this time, southbound traffic will be directed to use the Main Road.
The road is re-opened to normal two-way traffic after 16:00 on each day that work is being undertaken.
Signage is in place to inform road users of the roadworks and a Traffic Safety Officer from the contracted project team is in attendance to manage any incidents or problems.
The City of Cape Town apologises for any inconvenience and requests that road users proceed with caution while this work is underway.
