Construction Work Package E4

 Areas affected: Mandalay and Ikhwezi

Start date: February 2025

Planned end date: 2026

What's planned

Construction is about to commence along Govan Mbeki and Japhta K Masemola Roads in Khayelitsha in preparation for Phase 2A of MyCiTi.

MyCiTi is central to the City’s vision to enhance public transport for residents, creating a modern, efficient transport system that benefits residents for years to come. Work on Phase 2A is underway through multiple, smaller roadwork projects across the planned network, which will eventually connect Mitchells Plain and Khayelitsha with Claremont and Wynberg.

Construction is scheduled from March 2025 to November 2027 along the M9 Govan Mbeki/Japhta K Masemola Road, stretching from just south of the R300 Bridge to Oliver Tambo Community Hall.

  • Road upgrades and road widening
  • Intersection upgrades for improved traffic flow
  • Stormwater infrastructure improvements
  • Foundation work for a new MyCiTi station at Nolungile
  • Construction for kerbside bus stops and wider pavements with better features for walking and cycling
  • New streetlights for a safer, well-lit environment
