While this drive was closed, on and off, for a decade or so due to safety concerns related to rock falls, thorough civil engineering work meant the road could re-open in late 2009. Chapman's Peak Drive will now only be closed as a precaution in the event of severe wind or rain.
According to a plaque along the route, construction of this road began in 1915 and, after 7 years of work, it was officially opened by the governor-general of what was then the Union of South Africa, Prince Arthur of Connaught and Strathearn.
Chapman's Peak Drive was a prominent location for vehicle television commercials in the 1990s, most notably BMW's acclaimed 'Beat the Bends' campaign, filmed in response to a commercial by competitor Mercedes-Benz.
