The Voortrekker Road Corridor Improvement District is a non-profit company working to improve the safety, appearance, and community identity of the designated area.

In exchange for a levy contributed by local commercial property owners, the VRCID Special Ratings Area (SRA) provides ‘top-up’ services, delivered in addition to those of the City of Cape Town, to enhance the appearance and increase the safety of the area.

Membership is open to all the property owners who are encouraged to apply for membership so that they exercise their rights to influence the business of the CID. Membership cannot be denied and the property owner is entitled to attend, participate and vote at the Company meetings held under the auspices of the Companies Act.

Should a member be unable to attend they may give another individual their proxy to attend and vote on their behalf. Non-members may attend and participate but cannot vote and as such may thus have limited influence on the CID activities.

Safety & Security

Safety and Security is key to the success of the VRCID. The VRCID works in partnership with the South African Police Service (Bellville and Parow) and all Policing services of the City of Cape Town (Metro Police, Law Enforcement and Traffic services).

Urban Management

The VRCID has dedicated cleaning teams who work 7 days a week to keep the streets of the VRCID clean. These staff work tirelessly day and night to ensure a pleasant experience for the people working or living within the VRCID.

Social Development

Social development and upliftment are a priority for the VRCID. With the growing number of homeless and jobless people, the VRCID appointed a full-time Social Development Manager and two field workers.
