Beachfront upgrade almost ready

The public can expect Muizenberg's beachfront upgrades to be completed by Friday 1 August this year.

The City says the refurbishment of the Muizenberg beachfront is progressing well.

The construction of the coastal revetment at the start of the St James walkway is underway, the stormwater pipeline at Surfer's Corner has been realigned and is now being installed, and the contractor has commenced with the layer work at the western parking area.

If all goes as planned the parking area on the beach side, in front of the Muizenberg Civic Centre, will be open to the public by Friday 1 August.

The refurbishment of the Muizenberg beachfront entails major upgrades to public amenities and replacing the aged seawalls.

This forms part of the City's investment in popular beachfront areas to mitigate the impact of climate change on the beachfront and improve the quality of infrastructure in the area.
