Road Construction at Various Intersections of R27

The reinstatement of traffic signal detector loops will be taking place on various intersections along the R27 West Coast Road over the next two weeks.

Possible disruptions in traffic flow can be expected.

The reinstatement of traffic signal detector loops is required at the majority of intersections along the R27 West Coast Road between Milnerton (Racecourse Road) and Blaauwberg Strand (Blaauwberg Road).

The planned programme is as follows:

• Blaauwberg Road: Southbound – 21 October 2015, Northbound 22 October 2015.
• Ocean Way: Northbound 23 October 2015.
• Bay Beach Avenue: Northbound – 26 October 2015, Southbound -27 October 2015.
• Marine Drive: Northbound – 28 October 2015, Southbound – 29 October 2015.

Please note that the above programme is subject to change at short notice.

Traffic will be accommodated through lane merging outside peak hours.

Similar works are required on the intersections located between Sandown and Melkbosstrand, but this will only be done at a later stage when all road surfacing works along this section have been completed.

The safety and convenience of the travelling public are of utmost importance and every effort will be made to ensure that all temporary road signs, cones, flagmen and speed controls are maintained and are effective, and that courtesy is extended to the public at all times.

The public is requested to be patient and exercise caution when using the road.
