The Western Cape Government’s Mobility Department is the main point of contact for provincial traffic-related roles[2].
To view current vacancies:
- Visit job listing sites such as Indeed, Careerjet, and SimplyHired, and search for “Traffic Department” or “Traffic Officer” roles in the Western Cape[1][2][4][6].

Prospective traffic officers must complete an accredited training programme and will be awarded a Further Education and Training (FET) Certificate upon successful completion. According to the Western Cape Government, there is no set schedule for new traffic officer posts, as the timing of vacancies depends on departmental needs[8].
