Capetonians, this is not a drill. More Parking is on the cards for the Sea Point Promenade and Granger Bay near the Waterfront, as well as other awesome charms.
Cape Town (12 May, 2023)—More parking spots is the secret wish of most Capetonians, even the ones who can find a parking spot against all tourist odds.
Well, that wish is coming true for two Cape Town hotspots—The Sea Point Promenade and Granger Bay as part of the City’s parking area project!
But, that’s not nearly all. The City has also announced other features for the buzzing Atlantic Seaboard areas, including new and upgraded walkways, public art, coastal structures, a play park and a lawn and coastal vegetation.
And, Sea Point, which is already an art-loving hub, will enjoy the artists’ touch further as the Sea Point Library is set to receive a public art addition.
Not to mention, things are going to get a little greener.
“The City is working towards a greener Sea Point promenade with two added walkways connecting the promenade to Beach Road and a play park. We cannot wait for you to see the outcomes that will include a public art display inside the Sea Point Library.
“The upgrade of the Granger Bay parking area will also make way for more parking, with formalised bays demarcated. The Sea Point promenade is an iconic destination and one of the most popular among locals and visitors. We are continuously improving the infrastructure and look forward to seeing more visitors once the project is complete.”—Mayco for Spatial Planning and Environment, Alderman Eddie Andrews.
The project is set to be a 12-month-long assignment and will kick off on Monday, 15 May.
