TRANSPORT: WEIGH IN ABOUT PROPOSAL
Taxi plans re-routedMONIQUE DUVAL
@monique_duval
A mixed reaction from residents re-garding the proposed taxi route overOu KaapseWeg has sparked a request
by the South Peninsula Subcouncil for peo-ple to make suggestions.Theproposed route is envisioned to assist
school children, students and workers whotravel between Masiphumelele and West-lake.Many Xhosa-speaking pupils from West-
lake and Capricorn hike along the road tomake their way to Masiphumelele HighSchool as it is the closest school offeringXhosa to high school pupils.Last month, a 15-year-old pupil was sexu-
ally assaulted while catching a lift to schoolwith an elderly man.The new route, proposed by the subcoun-
cil, is to have been runby theMasiphumele-le Taxi Association.Masiphumelele proportional councillor
Mzuvukile Nikelo received a joint letterfrom students who attend False Bay Col-lege’sWestlakeCampus requesting the newroute.He has liaised with the taxi association
who has agreed the new route is feasible.But following concerns from residents
the subcouncil has opened up the proposalfor comments and suggestions.Subcouncil chairperson Felicity Pur-
chase says officials from the City of CapeTown’s public transport department arescheduled to embark on a survey once theschool holidays are over.Officials are now also looking into the
possibility of developing a bus route.She says there aremany factors to consid-
er before the final decision is made. “Weneed to look at how many people need thisservice as well as what the best mode of
transport is,” Purchase explains.Commenting on whether or not officials
will consider restricting the route to oper-ate only during peak hours, Purchase saysthis will be determined by the survey.“At this point we cannot say.We need the
survey results and for people to comment,”she says.Masiphumelele High School principal
NelsonMafrika says 76 children fromWest-lake andCapricornhitchhike onOuKaapseWeg.In previous comment he said the school
was concerned about the safety of pupilsand as the cost of taxi fares.Following a previous article (“New route
to give hiking the boot”, People’s Post, 27March) many readers aired their views.While many residents are excited about
the route, others have voiced their concern.One reader wrote: “I’m glad to see atten-
tion is focused on public transport. It’s notjust Masiphumelele and Ocean View resi-dents (who) are cut off when they reside in(the Far South). We can’t go to Westlake orTokai to find employment, as there are notrains or buses.”Raising a concern about the safety of tax-
is,k another reader wrote: “(It is a) niceidea; I am just very concerned about thetaxi-related accidents that will happen onan already dangerous road.”Residents are now asked to submit their
comments and suggestions to the subcoun-cil.V To comment or make suggestions on this proposedroute email Purchase on FelicityAnne.Purchase@capetown.gov.za or subcouncil manager Desiree Mentoor on [email protected]. Submissions may also be dropped at the subcouncil officesin Fish Hoek.V Share your thoughts and suggestions. Starting withthe word “Post”, SMS your comments to 32516.SMSes cost R1.

HOUT BAY: ROW OVER TOLLGATE
Police and Entilini to meetMONIQUE DUVAL
@monique_duval
Hout Bay police andEntilini Operationswill meet over access at the toll gateon Chapman’s Peak Drive.
This follows a public spat over access forpolice vehicles last week.According to reports Hout Bay Police Sta-
tion commander Lieutenant-Colonel Bonga-ni Mtakati claimed police officers could notget through the toll gate to assist an Iranianfamily who was robbed.In a statement provincial transportminis-
ter Robin Carlisle said “Mtakati was lying”and submitted pictures of the toll booth.He explains the driver of the police vehicle
was issuedwithadaypass andallowedentryinto Chapman’s Peak Drive.“Within three minutes, the police vehicle
returned to the plaza headed in the directionof Hout Bay, handing the pass back to thetoll collector,” Carlisle said.According to schedule B of the agreement
between Entilini and provincial govern-ment police vehicles, among others, are ex-empt from paying the toll, says Carlisle.Provincial police spokesperson Colonel
Tembinkosi Kinana says they cannot com-ment on Carlisle’s statement ahead of themeeting.“We therefore would not want to pre-empt
the outcome of the set meeting,” Kinanasays.Mtakati confirmed meetings have taken
place and more feedback is required.He says only once anagreement is reached
can he comment on the issue.Carlisle says access to police and other
emergency vehicles will be improved withthe introduction of an automatic numberplate recognition system at the toll plaza.“This system is at an advanced stage of
testing and will ensure that these vehiclesreceive automatic entry when performingtheir duties,” Carlisle says.The date of themeetingwas not confirmed
at the time of going to press.ACCESS: A screen shot from the camera in the toll booth, showing police officers being grantedaccess to Chapman’s Peak. PHOTO: SUPPLIED
PEOPLE'S POST | CONSTANTIA | WYNBERGThursday, 10 April 20144 OUT AND ABOUT
In an effort to combat the theft and resale of City-owned refuse bags, the City’s Solid WasteManagement Department has printed the letters ‘CCT SWM’ followed by a serial numberin black text on all its blue bags from June 2013. This will ensure that all stolen bags can berecognised and their source traced. Despite these measures being put in place, the Citycontinues to experience theft of its blue bags, which are then sold illegally on the street as wellas in some shops. The City is appealing to residents once again not to purchase blue refusebags at all as these bags are stolen property. The bags are usually packaged together with otherbags and folded to hide the printing. It can be assumed that all blue bags are stolen bags.Blue bags are used solely for all the activities and programmes of the Solid Waste ManagementDepartment’s Cleansing Branch.
Report any individual or shop seen selling these bags by contacting the City’s SolidWasteManagement branch for Loss Control on 021 900 1689 or e-mail [email protected].
If any blue bags are placed out on the roadside by residents, it will be deemed illegal dumpingand dealt with accordingly.
Your cooperation and assistance in this matter is highly appreciated. This action is in line withmaintaining a well-run city.

The Western Cape Touch Rugby Association has claimed itssecond National Inter-provincial Tournament (IPT) title injust six months.
Islanders took the overall title at the South African Touch Asso-ciation junior IPT in September and added the senior overall titleto their collection in Durban last month.
Team manager Nadeema Levy says the titles are a result of hardwork in the face of adversity.
“It’s just hard work that makes us win; there is no magic formu-la,” she says.
“We trained on Sundays, because it’s the only days players canattend practise. Our players don’t have transport, so we had toarrange lifts and collect people. We don’t have our own field, sowe have to move training around to various places. We made sureour sessions are effective and worked hard in the short time wehad (to practise).”
Islanders dominated the junior IPT, winning the boys under-19,under-17, under-15 and girls under-19 divisions. They also claimedsilver in the girls under-15 and bronze in the boys under-21 divi-sions.
Western Cape claimed four medals at the senior event, winningthe men’s open and invitational division, and claiming bronze inthe women’s open and mixed open divisions.
Levy says the impressive showing at the senior IPT left the team“jubilant”, adding the performance of the women’s teams was thebiggest achievement.
“At the four previous tournaments, the women’s teams didn’tperform but we have really worked hard to develop and promotethe women’s game,” she says.
“We went from last at the previous tournament to third, build-ing a team from scratch. This was our biggest achievement andthe future looks brighter for us going forward.”
Western Cape Islanders currently runs touch rugby leagues foraround 50 schools in across the Cape Peninsula.V Anyone interested in participating in touch rugby, assisting or sponsoring canphone Levy on 082 332 5155.

SPORTVDH ATTORNEYS
We deal with the following matters :BAIL & CRIMINAL (24hrs)
No rest for victorious IkeysUCT will launch straight into Western
Province club rugby competition lessthan a week after winning their sec-
ond FNB Varsity Cup title.The Ikey Tigers beat NWU Pukke in the
final in Potchefstroom on Monday night,but will have to keep the celebrations briefahead of their first Super League A fixtureagainst Tygerberg on Saturday.Theymaynot havemuch time to saviour
the victory, but Ikeys will certainly beboosted by the manner of their win.UCT got off to a flying start as a flowing
backline move saw outside-centre HuwJones hit a gap and surge over for the open-ing try.Dean Grant’s conversion attempt hit the
upright to start what would be an incon-sistent night with the boot.
Pukke responded by forcing UCT back-wards and a period of sustained pressuresaw the hosts take the lead when flankRhyk Welgemoed burst through a gap andscrumhalf Tiaan Dorfling converted thetry.They took advantage of theirmomentum
and increased the lead as good hands downthebackline saw leftwingLutherObi scorein the corner.UCT were first to score when the sides
returned from the strategy break, withwing Richard Stewart finishing off a coun-ter-attack after flank Jason Klaasen won aturnover in his 22. Grant was again off tar-get from the kicking tee.UCT received a massive boost when op-
position centre Johan Deysel was yellow-carded for a perceived reckless tackle, but
they could not capitalise before the half-time whistle sounded.Pukke were the next to score, with hook-
er Armand van der Merwe powering hisway over from close range after a series ofstrong drives by the hosts.The try went unconverted and theywere
again reduced to 14 men soon afterwards,when tighthead prop Nhlanhla Ngcamusaw yellow for a high tackle.But Pukke continued scoring despite the
numerical disadvantage, with Dillon Smitscoring a penalty to take the score to 20-10.UCT needed a response to get back into
the game, and got it from a driving maulwith the hard-working Klaasen crashingover to cut the deficit to 20-15.UCTwere cut down to 14men after a cyn-
ical infringement fromwingLihleliXoli on
their try-line andPukke capitalised almostimmediately, with Smit forcing his wayover to extend the lead again.Lock Francois Robbertse seemingly put
the result beyond doubt when he added an-other try soon after, but UCT refused to ac-cept their fate.Michael Botha and Grant hit back with
two quick-fire tries, both of which wereconverted by Grant, before Nathan Nelstruck in extra time to hand the Ikeys thevictory.Grant added the extras to giveUCTto take the final score to 39-33.The fixture against Tygerberg will take
place at Florida Park at 16:00.The other Super League A fixtures will
see Primrose travel to Helderberg, FalseBay visit Victorians and SK Walmers faceUWC in Bellville.

Runners and walkers of all ages and experi-ence levels are advised to complete their en-tries for the fourth annual Jive Slave RouteChallenge.Online entries for the popular race, of
which People’s Post is the print media spon-sor, opened yesterday (Wednesday) and areexpected to fill up quickly.The race first took place in 2011 and the
challenge has since become a highlight onthe Cape Town sporting calendar. Last yearover 5000 people participated.As usual, the route will take participants
past some of Cape Town’s most importanthistorical sights.Race founder and director Farouk Meyer
says the event is as much about educationas exercise.“The idea was to highlight the slave herit-
age sights because a lot of people don’t knowabout it,” he says.“We have a lot of visitors from up-country
and many international entrants who willbe educated on the slave heritage and cul-ture of Cape Town.”The route will take runners and walkers
pass the Grand Parade, the Whipping Post,the Old Slave Church, the Slave Lodge andthe Slave Tree Plaque.Racers will also pass several other impor-
tant monuments, run through the Castle ofGood Hope and be able to take in excellentviews of the city from some of its best van-tage points.Participants can enter for one of four dif-
ferent races at event – ahalf-marathon, 10kmrun, 10km walk and 5km run.Meyer says they aim to cater for the entire
family and all ability levels.Last year racers passed through theCastle
soon after starting the race in Darling Streetbetween the Grand Parade and City Hall.The only change to the route will see run-
ners travel throughDistrict Six before head-ing through the fort, to alleviate congestionand allow participants more time for sight-seeing.The section of the race through Pentz
Street, Bo-Kaap has become a fan favourite,Meyer says.“The hills in the race have been the talk-
ing point, with one hill has even been nick-named ‘Koesister Hill’,” he says.“Whenpeople get to the top of Pentz Street,
they have a 360° view of the city and theycan enjoy a free koesister courtesy of the Bo-Kaap community.”The racewill take place onSunday 11May.
Online entries can be completedat www.jive.topevents.co.za.Manual entries open on Monday 14 April
