SKHUMBUZO MACOZOMA CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER SANRAL SOUTH AFRICAN FORUM OF CIVIL ENGINEERING CONTRACTORS | LR 2/6/3/138 IN ORDER TO DEFINE A FUTURE – IT MUST BE PROPERLY CONTEXTUALISED NATIONAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN

o Too few people work o Goal is to eradicate poverty and inequality Acknowledgement that national o The quality of school education for o development is not linear but rather black people is poor cyclical – opt for a virtuous cycle where Infrastructure is poorly located, o one element feeds off of another or inadequate and under- enables another maintained o Infrastructure is a catalyst but not a o Spatial divides hobble inclusive panacea – the economy must grow development o Roles of Govt and Private sector are distinct and not inter-changeable South African Forum of Civil Engineering Contractors | LR 2/6/3/138 2 WHAT THE NDP 2030 SAYS

o GFCF at 30% of GDP o Public infrastructure investment at 10% of GDP financed through tariffs, PPPs, Taxes and Loans and focused on Transport, Energy and Water. o New spatial norms and standards o Faster and more inclusive economic growth o SA needs to fix the future - Starting today o Focused leadership (long-term) o Support for plans (participation and consultation) o Institutional capability (capable developmental State) o Resource mobilisation and agreement on trade-offs (some things may have to wait) o Sequencing and willingness to prioritise (focus on a few strategic priorities) o Clarity on responsibility (and hence accountability)

Ownership • More aggressive demands on Large Construction Sector Equitable Access • Limitation of number of contracts per company per province and nationally • Equitable allocation of projects across CIDB grades • Balance of JVs and sub-contracting • Sanral to have more say in sub-contracting • Review of project packaging – size, duration, budget Community Empowerment • Direct benefit of communities in materials sourced locally Supply Chains • Create space for black business in rigid supply chains – materials, equipment etc. Competition • Create space for black business in Toll Operations and all supporting sectors in Sanral business SMME Development and Support • Sanral to play a more direct role in emerging contractor development South African Forum of Civil Engineering Contractors | LR 2/6/3/138 10 10 FLAGSHIP PROJECTS 2017-2024

South African Forum of Civil Engineering Contractors | LR 2/6/3/138 11 PROJECTED ROAD INFRASTRUCTURE TREND OVER NEXT DECADE NATIONAL ROADS

o Sustained road maintenance levels – fundamental engineering approach o Non-toll network – capital expenditure on recently “transferred roads” to improve QI – is this the right focus? o Toll network – Delayed implementation of new major capital projects due to “anti-toll” drive and pressure on public allocations

o Delivery of flagship projects - N2 Wild Coast; Moloto Road; Van Reenen Development Project o Toll Concessions – Maybe one, but highly uncertain PROVINCIAL AND MUNICIPAL ROADS

o Pressure for capital investment on dilapidated and/or congested secondary strategic road network o Pressure for more road transfers to SANRAL o Urgency of improved Roads Authority delivery capacity – NDP Priority Action o Pressure for rural access and urban mobility o Persistent questions on “value for money” in roads projects o Backlog still outstrips budget allocations o More infrastructure damage due to climate change effects
