HARD WORK CONTINUES ON THE AIRPORT ROUTE
The City continues to rollout it’s sleeves and get down to work at the airport route.

New kerb inlets are being constructed as part of upgrading of the existing pavement structure.

The Settlers Way R72 is subject to excessive traffic and congestion during peak hours and this has resulted in many of traffic delays and longer travel times along this route.

The multi-million rand project is a 7.6 kilometre stretch that seeks to upgrade the East London's economic hubs' existing road, which is the Settlers Way from the airport intersection to Fleet steet intersection.

The project will consist of a construction of an  additional lane capacity to both Settlers Way and Military Road as well as the upgrading of the existing pavement structure.

The rehabilitation will be done in phases and it is expected to be completed in May 2023.
