On Tuesday the City of Cape Town said an urgent interdict application to put the Winelands toll project on hold will be heard next month in the Western Cape High Court. Brett Herron, the City of Cape Towns mayoral committee member for roads and transport said:
The interdict application will be heard in the Western Cape High Court on Thursday 16 May, when the city will seek an order to interdict Sanral (South African National Roads Agency) from taking any steps to implement the proposed N1-N2 Winelands toll highway project.
Sanral refuses to provide a complete record of documents that are relevant to the toll road project, including how much the project will cost and what toll fees are likely to be levied.
As a consequence of Sanral’s refusal to provide a complete record of documents, the city also brought an application to compel Sanral to disclose them.
The interdict would be pending the final outcome of the city’s review application, which was instituted in the Western Cape High Court in March 2012. Herron said the exchange of pleadings were unable to be finalised during the review application.
In November 2011 the city filed an urgent interdict and Sanral had at that time agreed to halt the introduction of the project pending the review outcome.
