Residents and road users in Mitchells Plain are advised that the next phase of roadworks on AZ Berman Drive will start on 22 August, weather permitting. Work is planned for nine months to accommodate construction for the next phase of MyCiTi bus services.

Construction is currently underway along AZ Berman Drive between Nduli Street and Petunia Street.

With effect from 22 August 2024, roadworks will also affect the section from Petunia Street to Pontiac Street.

• The two lanes serving traffic toward the R300 will be closed from Nduli Street to south of Wespoort Drive.
• The two lanes serving traffic in the opposite direction (toward Mitchells Plain central) will accommodate traffic in both directions.
• Temporary public transport stops will be placed along the reconfigured road for passengers to use during construction.
• Temporary walkways and pedestrian crossings with signalised traffic lights will help people navigate safely on foot and avoid the construction area.

The planned work will add to journey times and motorists are urged to plan their travel in advance, factor in extra travel time and follow the signage and flag personnel that have been deployed to keep traffic moving safely.

The City thanks residents for their patience, support and understanding while we undertake this necessary work to deliver safe and reliable public transport services, help reduce congestion and uplift surrounding areas well into the future.
