INTRODUCTION One of the overarching objectives for Transnet as contained in the Shareholder compact is to “Integrate South Africa with the region and the rest of the continent”. In addition economic developments in the Southern African region present enormous opportunities for Transnet, as one of the major players in the national freight system, in the medium- to longer-term. The World Bank’s Africa Pulse report of October 2013 reports that economic activity remains strong in much of sub-Saharan Africa, underpinned by robust domestic demand. The economic outlook for the region seems to be very positive by all accounts. More than a decade of growth has helped to lower poverty, but the twin goals of ending extreme poverty and boosting shared prosperity call for a sharp ramping up of effort. The World Bank projects GDP growth in sub-Saharan Africa reflected to be 4,9 percent in 2013, rising to 5,3 percent in 2014 and 5,5 percent in 2015. In addition countries in SADC such as Mozambique, Zambia, Angola and Tanzania are amongst the fastest growing in the world even though it is from a low base. Transnet has therefore embarked on a much more focused African strategy. This chapter provides a view on the current infrastructure within the region as well as an overview on freight demand and regional corridor development strategies and plans. Major developments and opportunities concerning rail, port and pipeline infrastructure are highlighted. A very brief view is presented of the Transnet strategies and development plans for Africa. 2. OVERVIEW OF DEMAND The Regional Freight Demand Model (RFDM) 2015 investigates the economies of 17 countries in sub-Saharan Africa. These countries are namely: Angola, Botswana, Burundi, Congo, Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), Kenya, Lesotho, Malawi, Mozambique, Namibia, Rwanda, South Africa, Swaziland, Tanzania, Uganda, Zambia and Zimbabwe. The objective is to forecast the demand for the aforementioned countries over a 31- year forecast period to support the development of transport infrastructure projects with a good information system. The RFDM methodology can be divided into three components, namely the compilation of a Social Accounting Matrix (SAM) for each of the countries. Secondly, the calculation of the volumes per commodity for the base year takes place, and thirdly the forecasting thereof. 2.1 TOTAL FREIGHT SURFACE FLOWS (SADC COUNTRIES) 2.1.1 SOUTH AFRICA CROSS BORDER TRAFFIC (TRANSNET TRANSPORTATION MODEL) The TTM (Transnet Transportation Model) is a gravity flow model that produces flows of freight on the rail network, cross-border and through the port system. Inputs to the model are the RFDM (Freight Demand Model) origin- destination pairs, independent views on strategic commodities and network data. The cross border traffic under review here are total surface flows, irrespective of mode, (road, rail, pipelines and air). Only countries which border South Africa are under consideration.

The data is categorised into three sectors, agriculture, manufacturing and mining, and the entire raw data file can be provided on request. DOMESTIC FREIGHT TRAFFIC In 2013 the biggest domestic sector traffic was made up by mining at 357mtpa, with most of the volumes emanating from South Africa. This is expected to grow to 1 127mtpa by 2044. Agricultural domestic traffic was at 327mtpa in 2013 and is projected to grow to 1 100mtpa in 2044. The biggest growth prospects are in manufactured goods, forecasted to grow from 284mtpa in 2013 to 1 110mtpa by 2044. Most of the growth in manufactured goods volumes is seen in South Africa, Angola, DRC, Tanzania, Uganda and Mozambique.
