CITY PREPS FOR 100 YEAR WAVE

My new article: City of Cape Preps for 100 Year Waves 

https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/city-cape-preps-100-year-waves-gareth-griffiths  The story focusses on an award-winning project by the engineering team from the City of Cape Town and the private sector.  

Thanks to this project, the people of the Strand, beach users, businesses and road users will be safe against the 100 year-old tidal wave for a long time to go. And the business precinct was significantly upgraded, which allowed for the expansion of the informal traders' market also.

Strand beach and Pavillion is a well-used area especially during the Christmas period, so all tourists and locals should enjoy an enhanced built environment and safety during the holidays.
