Boyes Drive was closed today 09 July 2024 due to flooding from heavy rain. The pass opened again around 17:30. I recorded a few sections where flooding occurred. #capetown #flood #flooding #storm #southafrica #bikeandwalkcapetown

So good to see Cape Town councils managing the flooding and deluge so well. The sand bags certainly help direct the flow. I reckon we're the only province where these services work for the people.

Definately. Gauteng the floods will take the road away and the road will stay like that for years.

@@TheNikinutso negative. And I wonder if the council is helping and supporting the people of Kayalitsha as well as the rich and famous? A report on that would be a good thing.

It used to rain like this back in the day for many years. This was known as the 7 day rain in July. This is nothing new.

It's not known as "The Cape of Stoms" for publicity reason. The recent fires denuded the slopes of vegetation.
