Enhanced Security

Application approved. Preparing for installation.

Our vision for a safer Upper Crosby is becoming a reality. With the boom-gate application approved, we are preparing for installation and monitoring from January 2027, subject to funding and completion of the remaining preparations.

Current stage.
The application has been approved. Next are Government Gazette advertising within 30 days, a wayleave application and a community meeting.
Resident access.
No fee may be charged for access to the restricted area. Emergency and service access must be allowed, pedestrian access must be accommodated, and all signage remains subject to approval.
Community funded.
Every household is asked to contribute R6,000 before infrastructure installation. If you have not yet paid, please arrange payment as soon as possible so that a lack of funds does not delay the gates.
