Upgrading Jip de Jager Drive into a dual carriageway has been proposed by the City of Cape Town.
Project background
Jip de Jager Drive provides primary access to the N1 for a large portion of the northern suburbs and provides a key north-south linkage in Cape Town’s metropolitan road network. In recent years Durbanville and the northern suburbs of Bellville have experienced rapid residential and commercial development, placing the existing primary arterial road network under strain. This has created demand for the completion of crucial missing road links. In 2015 a Traffic Impact Assessment projected that after the extension of Jip de Jager Ave to St. Johns Road, the next logical step would be the dualling of Jip de Jager between Kommissaris Street and Van Riebeeckshof Road.
Open day
A public open day on the proposed dualling of Jip de Jager Drive took place on 11 March 2020. Input from the community is an important part of the City’s commitment to open and transparent planning. All the comments received will be considered as part of the project’s final design stage.
