Our goal was to make recommendations for infrastructure designs and management - options for informal traders to be used in the central business district (CBD) of Mitchells - Plain in Cape Town, South Africa.  We interviewed traders in the marketplace to - communicate their concerns and suggestions to the City.  We proposed canopy options and - management improvements for the market.  This project produced proposals for improvement in four main areas; infrastructure, waste management, merchandise transportation and storage.With implementation, the recommendations would improve the functionality of the marketplace.
