ROAD CONSTRUCTION IN GEORGE
Resurfacing of CJ Langenhoven Road, George will impact on road users from July to September 2022.
PROJECT:
Resurfacing of CJ Langenhoven Road
Resurfacing of CJ Langenhoven Road (Davidson Road to York Street), funded by Western Cape Government:
Transport and Public Works
PLANNED CONSTRUCTION ACTIVITIES ON CJ LANGENHOVEN ROAD:
The works comprise the resurfacing of CJ Langenhoven Road, George. The section in question is between the
George Hospital in the west and York Street in the east.
Also included is the repair of sections of stormwater and kerbs.
The length of the above road section is approximately 1030 meters.
There is one lane in each direction along this section of the road, with numerous accesses to commercial
properties. The width of the road is approximately 11.4 meters.
PROJECT PERIOD:
July to September 2022.
SERVICE DISRUPTION:
Traffic congestion can be expected.
TRAFFIC IMPACT:
The remedial work will require the milling and removal of existing bituminous layers as well as milling and removal
of existing gravel base layers. The milling operations will be followed by the placing of new bituminous base layers
and surface layers.
The above work will be carried out in half widths and the Langenhoven Street will be restricted to one-way traffic
at times. Traffic will be managed by means of stop and go or rerouted. This will lead to traffic congestion and
delays.
Access to businesses will be maintained, however parking between Palm Road and York Street will be impacted
Reconstruction and repairs to kerbs will have no major traffic impact.
DRIVING COMFORT:
There will be a height difference between the two lanes while milling and asphalt construction work is in progress.
Drivers, cyclists, and pedestrians must exercise extreme caution, especially during wet conditions, when visibility
is poor and at night. Vehicles with low profile tyres and motorcyclists must take extra care.
