South African National Roads Agency's Presentation
PRESENTATION TO BORDER KEI CHAMBER OF BUSINESS Presented by Mbulelo Peterson 12 February 2016 1 PRESENTATION OUTLINE • SANRAL’s Service Delivery Model • SANRAL Philosophy on asset preservation • Budget breakdown • Secondary Strategic Network • Projects • Bypasses • Community Development projects SANRAL’S SERVICE DELIVERY MODEL • SANRAL is the implementing arm of the Department of Transport. • SANRAL was established in 1998 by an act of parliament. • SANRAL’s mandate is to plan, design, construct and maintain the National Road Network. • SANRAL opted to carry out this mandate by outsourcing the design, construction and maintenance of the network by making use of private consulting firms and construction companies. • SANRAL opted to be an INFORMED CLIENT that retained the planning, management and decision making capacity in-house. SANRAL PHILOSOPHY ON ASSET PRESERVATION 1. Asset Preservation and Management come first! 2. One has to plan and budget for the maintenance and preservation of the road network before thinking of upgrades. 3. Safety on our roads must receive top priority. 4. Law enforcement must be seen to be effected at all times. 5. Overload control centres should be operational 24 hours a day. 4 BUDGET BREAKDOWN 2013/14 2014/15 2015/16 2016/17 Routine Maintenance 226,828,895 253,161,101 281,735,381 329,569,905 Periodic Maintenance 159,889,022 577,385,138 1,073,396,998 1,489,591,810 Special Maintenance 204,828,543 183,763,104 416,761,552 423,526,687 Strengthening 470,047,511 688,360,522 560,079,264 882,885,142 Improvements 954,365,978 -
