The City of Cape Town’s Transport Directorate will recommence with the resurfacing of the M3 outbound between the N2 highway and Newlands Avenue on Monday, 13 January 2020. Road users are advised to consider making use of alternative routes.
The Steve Biko Building has been temporarily closed for renovations since 1 July 2019 and will remain closed until 31 March 2020. The reason for this project is to provide compliant and appropriate access to all services, specifically student health and disability services. The Cissy Gool Plaza Food Court and the UCT Bookshop will not be affected by the temporary closure and will operate as normal throughout the construction period. The UCT community is advised that there will be noise, dust, smells and fumes during this renovation period, which might affect the surrounding areas and buildings.
Departments have been relocated as follows:
all student bodies (SHAWCO, SRC, Varsity News, RAG, Ubunye) – Parking Lot 4 next to the rugby fields
Fundi – North Council Meeting Room, Sports Centre
Student Wellness Service – Ivan Toms Building
Department of Student Affairs (DSA) executive director and staff – 5 Stanley Road, Middle Campus
Student Development and staff – 9 Stanley Road, Middle Campus
Disability Service – Level 4, John Day Building, Upper Campus
