Cape Town Mayor Geordin Hill-Lewis has launched a R120-billion infrastructure portfolio that is poised to form the foundation for economic growth in the city for the next ten years.
Planned projects include upgrading wastewater works and sewers; delivering 300-million litres from new water sources daily; ending loadshedding; building a new Khayelitsha-Claremont bus route and fixing passenger rail; upgrading various city-wide roads; expanding waste collection, drop-off sites and landfill capacity; and releasing land and bulk services for more affordable housing.
