The Table Mountain Safety Forum (TMSF) is assisting with enhancing safety in the Table Mountain National Park, especially over peak periods.
The safety measures TMSF has implemented include early detection and responses to criminal activities, injuries and fires in and around the mountain; visible safety deployment; and improved response to traffic congestion around the main tourist sites on the mountain.
A Fire Task Team was also established with the City of Cape Town, the SAPS, SANParks and the Fire Department, which will co-ordinate fire responses and act on suspected cases of arson.
TMSF successfully conducted 27 rescue operations in the Table Mountain National Park in January and 13 in February.
