Nagmerrie-verkeersknope rondom Vredekloofhoogte tydens spitsure, veral in Brackenfell-boulevard en Okavangoweg, het inwoners genoop om antwoorde van die Stad Kaapstad te soek.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Inwoners s\u00ea die verkeerschaos word veroorsaak deur die uitgebreide ho\u00ebdigtheidsontwikkeling in Brackenfell-boulevard sowat vier jaar gelede \u2013 ontwikkelings wat hulle ten sterkste teengestaan het.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWat \u2019n nagmerrie! Dit het ons lewens omvergewerp. Dit neem my sowat 45 minute om van CapeGate-winkelsentrum tot by my huis in Vredekloofhoogte te ry, wat skaars 3 km weg is,\u201d s\u00ea \u2019n inwoner, Bonita Conradie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cEk kon by geen van die uitgange van die sentrum uitkom nie, omdat die verkeer oral bankvas staan as gevolg van versperrings by kruisings wanneer die ligte rooi slaan en voertuie in die middel van die pad staan \u2013 veral by die Okavango-kruising by die hospitaal,\u201d s\u00ea sy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Opeenhoping van verkeer by die kruising van De Bronweg en Brackenfell-boulevard is ook \u2019n groot kopseer vir motoriste uit albei rigtings (Durbanville en Brackenfell).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cVerkeer wat oor die brug probeer kom, versper die kruising en dan kan niemand beweeg nie. Motoriste van Durbanville se kant staan baie lank om uit te kom. Dis ook geen grap vir diegene wat van Ou Paarlpad se kant af ry nie.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Conradie het verlede week \u2019n versoek aan die wyksraadslid Gerhard Fourie gerig om die verkeer op die omliggende roetes in spitstye te monitor met die oog daarop om die probleem op te los.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Conradie, wat lid is van die Northern District Community Forum (NDCF), s\u00ea die Stad sal iets daadwerkliks moet doen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cDie nuwe woonstelblokke by Belami-sirkel word nog nie eens bewoon nie en die woonstelle in Vredekloofhoogte is ook nie 100% vol nie en dit lyk al klaar so.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cDie Stad is veronderstel om al sy inwoners en belastingbetalers te dien. Ek eis dat die Stad hieraan aandag gee en so gou moontlik,\u201d het sy in \u2019n skrywe aan Fourie ges\u00ea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die NDCF het in 2018 sterk kapsie gemaak teen die ontwikkeling van die meer as 600 nuwe woonstelle in Brackenfell-boulevard, net duskant Kleinbron-landgoed. \u201cOns het voorspel dat die bestaande infrastruktuur nie al die nuwe verkeer sou kon dra nie, en ons was reg. Ons het ons insette gelewer deur die hele proses, maar die ontwikkeling is steeds goedgekeur sonder om aan ons besware gehoor te gee,\u201d s\u00ea sy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die NDCF het toe ook app\u00e8l aangeteken, wat verwerp is omdat hulle volgens die Stad \u2019n dag laat was met die aansoek.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Maar volgens Conradie het die subraad vir hulle \u2019n skrywe gestuur met \u2019n datum wat \u2019n dag verskil van die Stad se sperdatum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cOns het die fout aan die Stad uitgewys op dokumentasie, maar die Stad wou nie ons app\u00e8l aanvaar nie. Ons enigste opsie was om hooggeregshof toe te gaan, maar daar was nie geld daarvoor nie.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die NDCF het in sy destydse insette ges\u00ea die padbeplanning rondom die nuwe ontwikkelings is nie voldoende nie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cOns het selfs \u2019n onafhanklike persoon gekry om self \u2019n verkeersimpakstudie studie te doen wat verskeie foute uitgewys het in die Stad se verkeersimpakstudie. Daar was talle tegniese en berekeningsfoute in hul verslag,\u201d s\u00ea Conradie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cDie nuwe skool en Vredekloof is ook nie destyds in berekening gebring nie. Die Stad het gefaal om die groter verkeersprentjie in die area in ag te neem. Talle klein verkeersimpakstudies word gedoen, maar dit neem die ander nie in ag nie.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Conradie s\u00ea dit is nie meer \u2019n plesier om in Vredekloofhoogte te bly nie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cOns moet ons lewens rondom die verkeer beplan. Ek kan nie eens meer my ouers nooi vir ete op \u2019n weeksaand nie omdat dit hulle te lank vat om by my uit te kom van Proteahoogte \u2013 net 5 km weg in Brackenfell-boulevard. Dit was erg voor die ontwikkeling, maar het baie erger geword.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
