‘Cinderella’ gets to take her prince to a ball Kayla Brand, a learner at Tygerberg High School who lives in a safe house with her mother and her younger brother, is one of the few matriculants who can say that they have had the privilege of attending a ball with prince charming. Kayla (17) was fortunate to be escorted to her matric ball last week by Mr South Africa 2019, Heinrich Gabler, all thanks to the kindness and generosity of the Mr South Africa organisation. The organisation says it was approached by Coastal Radio SA to help make her fairy tale dream come true. The radio station also had help from a few sponsors. “Kayla gets up at 04:30 in the morning to get ready to be on time for school as her studies and education has always come first in her life. She would brave the cold mornings and take a taxi to the Parow train station, and from there walk the rest of the way to her school,” Amanda Trollip says on behalf of the radio station. Heinrich even bought her some flowers as a real gentleman should, the Mr SA organisation says. PHOTO: DIONNE JORDAAN PHOTOGRAPHY
TRAFFIC DEPARTMENT: REPAIRS TO START THIS WEEKEND
Road in shambles TARRYN-LEIGH SOLOMONS @tarryns07

esidents have expressed concerns about parking facilities at Goodwood traffic department, which they feel needs urgent attention. James Ellis, chairperson of the Glenwood neighbourhood watch, says of the issues include those of safety at the facility and damage to vehicles as there’s no tarred road. He has called on the City of Cape Town to visit the area, which is located at Hugo Street in Richmond Estate. “It seems that this area
and the greater Goodwood are really neglected by the City of Cape Town when it comes to the day to day running of this infrastructure together with the maintenance,” he says. He explains that a temporary area next to the fire station was set out for the public to park when visiting this facility. “Both this area and the parking at the traffic department is sub-standard,” he says. Visitors must use these areas where their vehicles get damaged, he added. They can also incur injuries should they trip or fall in the potholes and or uneven road surfaces. This alone can cause civil claims against the City
for injuries that might arise due to these conditions.” Ellis says the area created next to the fire station is also a huge risk as people, especially women, have to park in these areas and walk alone without any security close to the traffic department. “They now become potential victims to crime. This is something we cannot ignore and should take up seriously, especially with the current situation of violence against women and children.” Juanita Louw from Richmond Estate says she has similar concerns as those of Ellis. “Safety is a concern for me as a woman be-
cause one never knows who is hiding behind a car. There’s also no one nearby in case something out of the ordinary happens. Moreover, these potholes can cause suspension problems that I’ll at the end of the day have to pay for.” TygerBurger sent the City a range of questions, to which spokesperson Luthando Tyhalibongo responds: “The City will commence repair work at the traffic department this weekend. It should take approximately three weeks to complete. To ensure that there is limited disruption to the department’s operations, work will be conducted after 13:00 during the week.”
