• UCT Shuttle delays due to Speed Classic Cape Town

    -

    Dear students and staff

    Please be advised of possible UCT Shuttle delays during the week of 23 to 30 October, due to road closures linked to the Speed Classic Cape Town event taking place from 25 to 26 October 2025.

    Hiddingh shuttles are most likely to be delayed, as various roads on the Hiddingh route will be closed to traffic. Due to these road closures, all users who board at the bridge stop returning to main campus should board and alight at the Garden Centre stop.

    We recommend that commuters:

    • Allow extra travel time when planning trips to and from campus.
    • Use the UCT Shuttle app (download on Google Play or Apple App Store) for live updates and route changes.

    We appreciate your patience and understanding during this period of disruption.
