Cape Town - On Monday, March 6 2017, the City’s Executive Mayor, Patricia de Lille, will officially open the "exhibition of proposals" for the Foreshore Freeway Precinct.
This follows a call to the private sector to submit proposals to unlock the potential of the unfinished bridges on the foreshore.
In June 2016, Mayor De Lille made the call for proposals with the Foreshore Freeway Prospectus, asking the private sector to submit ideas for the development of the precinct.
These ideas, the city says, could form the basis for a concept for the future of the Foreshore Precinct.
The City's exhibition of proposals open on Monday. What do YOU think should be done regarding the unfinished bridges in the CBD. ow can congestion be eased? Tell us via email, Facebook and Twitter.
