• Construction works on Main Road will cease for the holiday season from 15th December 2010 and will resume on 11th January 2011. Near Capri Road, rock breaking will continue from 20th to 23rd December 2010 to enable the contractor to make up some lost time.
• Main Road from St James Road to Kalk Bay has been converted to a one-way in a southerly direction and will remain a one-way during the holiday season. Main Road is open and free flowing without any delays to the south. Motorists traveling in a southerly direction are encouraged to use Main Road to avoid delays on Boyes Drive.
