Should see how this is being put forward on the Noordhoek Residents forum on FB. My word... Rabid comes to mind. 

You mean the guys who went all the way to the supreme court over a parking lot http://www.pressreader.com/south-africa/cape-argus/20120531/281694021834021

That's NEAG - who seem quiet on this one so far 

 

the last post they had was in march last year, about - 2 toads they had found and successfully nimby'd to somewhere else. http://www.neag.org.za/2016/03/guttural-toad-invasion/

They will be all over this one like a Leopard Toad into a puddle (or will common sense play out?)

Its the hippy version of Hout Bay. They love a good moan sesh.

 

Thought it was Bishops-by-the-sea... all the hippies have had to move to Kom' ;)

Schools are more important, however with the toll I think many parents would be put off to use this every day. My 2 cents worth.

 

More kids commuting to school...

It's the Noordhoek Community Forum that I was referring to. Got the name wrong...

 

But yes. Just like that.

Presume this was a failed attempt at garnering support from a group of people the OP thought would be on her/his/their side. 

 

Shame.

 

Surprisingly cyclists aren't all the selfish tools some would have you believe.

or, that chapman's peak is that busy during the school hours(and that houtbay residents are going to be the ones going to the school). pretty sure the strava heatmap is lit up weekend mornings

Was really shocked at how much of the nature reserve on Ou Kaapse became that new private estate, almost the entire first bottom bit on the right hand side as you go up.

Yes and I am surprised there was no uproar(maybe there was) especially considering the toads

Cant believe no one has suggested adding his email address from the OP to some dodgy email lists / sites that involve midgets and lots of lube and funny shaped objects filmed in 4K.

2 acronyms spring to mind here - GFY, NIMBY.

 

And Chappies is closed anyway. 

Almost always. Like I said before, I have done my fair share of public participation, and a lot of that involved cellphone towers. People always bitch and moan that they do not have signal or their calls keeps dropping, but propose a cellphone mast close by, and all hell breaks lose. They want the cellphone masts, or schools, or houses .... but NIMBY
