Transport for Cape Town envisions that “Freight transport within Cape Town and the City’s functional area is safe and efficient, serving the needs of the local and regional economy without compromising the access and mobility needs of fellow road users; freight operators understand and comply with regulations that deal with road safety; emissions; route and road asset preservation; and the user-pays principle.”

The Freight Management Strategy, which I assisted in drafting in 2015 for the City of Cape Town, outlines the way in which the City intends to achieve this vision.
