Another traffic fine roadshow loading – this time in Mitchells Plain

Published on

 

Following three successful traffic fine roadshows at the Civic Centre in the Cape Town CBD, the City departments involved are taking the show on the road, and expanding the service offering to Mitchells Plain.

 

The next roadshow will take place at the Lentegeur Civic in Merrydale Road, Mitchells Plain from Monday 29 to Wednesday 31 July 2024.

 

The roadshow will run between 08:30 and 18:00 daily.

 

The Mayoral Committee Member for Safety and Security JP Smith says while it is a different venue, the concept remains the same – an opportunity to resolve outstanding fines, warrants and petition for a reduction in outstanding amounts.

 

This also means more residents will now potentially have the opportunity to pay their fines, as not everyone is able to travel to the Cape Town CBD.

 

As always, I do want to remind members of the public to please be patient, and to ensure that they have all of the necessary documentation with them to avoid disappointment, or multiple trips.

 

Departments involved in the Road Show include the Traffic Service, Legal Services, and the City’s Revenue Department.

 

In addition to settling outstanding fines, this roadshow will also provide an opportunity for customers to resolve queries relating to their City rates/services accounts and complete applications for indigent and/or pensioner’s rebates.

 

Residents are asked to bring their ID’s, proof of residence, copy of their accounts and three-months banking statements.

 

People planning to attend the roadshow for assistance with their traffic fines are advised to have a valid form of identification (ID, passport or driving licence) or a Traffic Register Certificate.

 

If they are representing someone else, they must have their own ID, a copy of the ID of the person they are representing, and an affidavit granting them permission to act on the other person’s behalf.
