Speeding in Ravensteyn Road & Horak Avenue

Dear Mr Bowker

Ian forwarded me your email regarding the roadworks update. Thanks for this information and I’m glad that great progress had made been made with resurfacing Geneva drive.

I stay at 23 Ravensteyn Road and I share your concern about speeding in this area (and the building site in general), there are some vehicles that drive at speeds in excess of 80 km/h and many of the MyCiti buses also are driving in excess of 40km/h (particularly at the Prima bus stop because the road is straight and downhill). The situation has deteriorated since access has been provided to Fiskaal Avenue via Ravensteyn Road/Horak Avenue.

Would it be possible for Traffic Officers to visit the area on a random basis between 4pm-6pm to enforce the speeding limits please before a worker or pedestrian gets killed or seriously injured.

I’ve cc’d Paul Oliver and Erin Whare so that this matter can be investigate further by them as well.

Many thanks
Eric Welz
