The City of Cape Town will commence with the extension of Belhar Main Road in August this year. The project will alleviate traffic congestion in Highbury and the surrounding areas, as well as support future developments planned for this region.

Leading up to Mandela Day, the City of Cape Town’s Executive Mayor, Alderman Dan Plato, and Mayoral Committee Members Councillor Malusi Booi (Human Settlements) and Alderman Felicity Purchase (Transport) joined contractors at the Masiphumelele Phase 4 housing project to check on the progress of the project as well as to assist with painting houses and mixing mortar, among other building tasks.
