A fresh wave of inclusivity is taking shape in Grassy Park, where the Western Cape's Department of Mobility has rolled out new pedestrian safety signage aimed at protecting and empowering the visually impaired.
The project, launched earlier this week by Mobility Minister Isaac Sileku at the League of Friends of the Blind LOFOB, marks a milestone in the province's efforts to create safer streets for all. The department's latest initiative is part of its broader Mobility Month campaign, which focuses on building transport systems that cater to everyone, regardless of ability.
The unveiling was carried out in partnership with the South African Police Service SAPS, City of Cape Town Traffic Services, and LOFOB, as per Smile FM . Together, these partners are working towards creating road environments that prioritise accessibility and ensure that visually impaired pedestrians can navigate their communities with confidence.
