Cape Town: Traffic Fine Roadshow heads to Brackenfell. The event is open for general public from Saturday, May 16, 2026 to Friday, May 22, 2026. This time, the event will also remain open on Sunday. Residents are reminded that they can seek assistance with municipal accounts too.
Reportedly, the roadshows make the often-arduous task of fine and warrant representations across different magisterial districts far easier, by offering all services at a single service point. It brings together the City of Cape Town’s Traffic Service, Revenue Department, Municipal Court representatives and other internal departments.
Members of the public can:
- Pay outstanding traffic fines
- Enquire about fines for vehicles registered in their name
- Apply for a reduction in fines issued within the City’s jurisdiction
- Enquire about and finalise warrants or summonses
- Remove administrative marks on the NaTIS system
- Enquire about municipal rates and services accounts
- Apply for indigent or pensioner rebates
The previous roadshow in Athlone in March 2026 had over 3600 people queuing to finalise reductions in traffic fines and warrants to the value of nearly R16 million. This time, the roadshow will take place at the Brackenfell Civic Centre at the corner of Old Paarl and Paradys Street on the following dates, to be noted:
- Friday, 15 May 2026: Open to City staff and public members with bulk representations (20 or more fines per public visitors).
- Saturday, 16 May 2026: Open to all members of the public.
- Sunday, 17 May 2026: Open to all members of the public.
- Monday 18 May – Friday 22 May 2026: Open to all members of the public
Member of the Mayoral Committee for Safety and Security – Alderman JP Smith stated that the roadshows bring services closer to the public and offer an alternative to the rigidity of the system that requires representations on a normal day, to be made at specific courts.
Smith added that they do everything possible to have them as frequently as resources allow. It is quite the logistical exercise, and they thank all staff members and departments who have a hand in what has become an incredibly popular service.
The event will start at 08:30 a.m. on all days and the end time will be determined by roadshow coordinators, based on demand and their ability to assist everyone in the queue. Persons still in the queue at cut-off time will receive tickets to be seen to be first the following day.
