Virtual tour of freeway, train line proposal

A CAPE Town development engineer has given the Cape Argus a bird’s eye view and taken the publication on a virtual tour of what the incomplete freeway could look like once completed.

This includes the elevated freeway train, a proposal which he has made to the City of Cape Town.

Last week, the Cape Argus shared the story of the proposed 6km train line, which could connect key areas like the city centre and the Waterfront in under 10 minutes and integrate with the existing Prasa network.

This, Gareth Ramsay said, would utilise the foreshore’s 40-year-old incomplete freeway. The City, however, said it would not be feasible.

Ramsay said it could be done by allowing Prasa to rent the land and to foot the cost of the operations.
