Protecting Property Values & Attracting Investment
The Fietas Improvement District encompasses the historic Pageview and Vrededorp areas adjacent to the UJ Bunting Road campus and Johannesburg city center.
Through structured urban management, visible patrollers, and coordinated municipal partnerships, Fietas aims to safeguard property values, stimulate commercial investment, and ensure clean, sustainable public infrastructure for all residents and business operators.
Proposed Improvement District Boundaries Map
The Fietas Improvement District boundary extends across Pageview and Vrededorp, bounded by UJ-APB Bunting Road Campus, Witwatersrand university nodes, and key central railway corridors. This strategic alignment ensures close collaboration with neighboring academic and commercial improvement districts.
