A traffic fine and warrant roadshow will be held at the Brackenfell Civic Centre, corner of Old Paarl and Paradys Street, from Friday 15 May to Friday 22 May.
The event is open to the general public from Saturday, 16 May, and will also run on Sunday, 17 May — a first for the roadshow series.
Friday, 15 May is reserved for City staff and members of the public with bulk representations of 20 or more fines. All other days are open to the general public.
One stop service point
The roadshow starts at 08:30 daily; the cut-off time will be determined by coordinators based on demand. Those still in the queue at cut-off will receive tickets granting them priority the following day.
“The roadshows make the often arduous task of fine and warrant representations across different magisterial districts far easier, by offering all services at a single service point,” says Mayco member for safety and security JP Smith. “The roadshows bring services closer to the public and offer an alternative to the rigidity of the system that, on a normal day, requires representations to be made at specific courts. We do everything possible to have them as frequently as resources allow. It is quite the logistical exercise and we thank all staff members and departments who have a hand in what has become an incredibly popular service.”

Members of the public can use the roadshow to pay outstanding traffic fines; enquire about fines registered in their name; apply for fine reductions within the City’s jurisdiction; enquire about and finalise warrants or summonses; remove administrative marks on the Natis system; enquire about municipal rates and services accounts; and apply for indigent or pensioner rebates.
The roadshow brings together the City’s traffic service, revenue department, municipal court representatives and other internal departments at a single service point, removing the need to visit multiple magisterial districts. The previous roadshow held in Athlone in March drew more than 3 600 people and processed fine reductions and warrants to the value of nearly R16 million.
