  • Life Cycle Carbon Footprint of the North-South Corridor Road Network Philippa Notten and Ilhaam Patel December 2013
    Life Cycle Carbon Footprint of the North-South Corridor Road Network Philippa Notten and Ilhaam Patel December 2013 Revamping the Regional Railway Systems in Eastern and Southern Africa Mark Pearson and Bo Giersing Regional Integration Research Network Discussion Paper (RIRN/DP/12/01) Regional Integration Research Network www. Open Dialogues for Regional Innovation trademarksa.org/rirn Preface Since its establishment in 2009, TradeMark Southern Africa (TMSA) has supported the COMESA-EAC-SADC Tripartite in developing and implementing its regional integration agenda. TMSA has provided this support by focusing on regional market integration to establish a free trade area in the Tripartite region, trade facilitation, infrastructure development and industrial development. One of the work areas under the infrastructure development pillar is TMSA’s support for the design, upgrade and construction of regional transport corridors. TMSA commissioned Camco Clean Energy and The Green House to undertake a study for estimating the carbon footprint of the North-South Corridor road network (NSC) according to international best-practice standards. This was done through a life-cycle analysis approach by determining the carbon footprint of individual road links forming part of the NSC in their respective construction, maintenance, rehabilitation and operational phases. Thereafter, the individual carbon footprints of NSC roads in different phases were added to determine and analyse the overall carbon footprint of the NSC. The study is innovative by being the first of its kind to consider and determine the contribution of a wide variety of greenhouse gasses arising from road construction activities, equipment and materials over the entire life-cycle of roads.

    Analysis of the Relationship between the Severity of Road Traffic Crashes and the Human factors involved: N4 Toll Route Case Study by Andries Johannes Gelderblom Thesis presented in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Engineering in Civil Engineering in the Faculty of Engineering at Stellenbosch University Supervisor: Prof. Marion Sinclair March 2021 Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za Declaration By submitting this thesis electronically, I declare that the entirety of the work contained therein is my own, original work, that I am the sole author thereof (save to the extent explicitly otherwise stated), that reproduction and publication thereof by Stellenbosch University will not infringe any third party rights and that I have not previously in its entirety or in part submitted it for obtaining any qualification. Signature: AJ Gelderblom ______________________ Date: March 2021 Copyright © 2021 Stellenbosch University All rights reserved i Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za Abstract Road safety is considered to be one of the most critical concerns in contemporary society. As a result, reducing road traffic crashes is, arguably, the most critical aspect that needs to be addressed within a roadway system. Injuries and fatalities resulting from traffic crashes are a serious problem. Globally, the number of road traffic deaths continues to rise, reaching a devastating 1.35 million fatalities in 2016, which equates to almost 3700 people being killed on the world’s roads every day. Despite the efforts made by government agencies and the engineering community, the road crash fatality rate in South Africa remains higher than the global average.
