The City of Cape Town has reiterated its commitment to road safety and crime prevention following an incident on the M22 Airport Approach slipway onto the N2, where a motorist was targeted on Thursday evening at about 7pm while travelling in the direction of Somerset West.
City officials confirmed that the incident occurred within a section of road covered by the municipality's Freeway Management Plan, an initiative introduced in August 2024 to curb crime-related incidents on major transport routes and improve assistance to motorists.
Municipal authorities said their thoughts remain with the motorist affected by the incident, noting that no safety strategy can entirely eliminate criminal activity but that layered security continues to show measurable results.
