  • BUILDING from SCRATCH: New Cities, Privatized Urbanism and the Spatial Restructuring of Johannesburg After Apartheid
    INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF URBAN AND REGIONAL RESEARCH 471 DOI:10.1111/1468-2427.12180 — BUILDING FROM SCRATCH: New Cities, Privatized Urbanism and the Spatial Restructuring of Johannesburg after Apartheid claire w. herbert and martin j. murray Abstract By the start of the twenty-first century, the once dominant historical downtown core of Johannesburg had lost its privileged status as the center of business and commercial activities, the metropolitan landscape having been restructured into an assemblage of sprawling, rival edge cities. Real estate developers have recently unveiled ambitious plans to build two completely new cities from scratch: Waterfall City and Lanseria Airport City ( formerly called Cradle City) are master-planned, holistically designed ‘satellite cities’ built on vacant land. While incorporating features found in earlier city-building efforts, these two new self-contained, privately-managed cities operate outside the administrative reach of public authority and thus exemplify the global trend toward privatized urbanism. Waterfall City, located on land that has been owned by the same extended family for nearly 100 years, is spearheaded by a single corporate entity. Lanseria Airport City/Cradle City is a planned ‘aerotropolis’ surrounding the existing Lanseria airport at the northwest corner of the Johannesburg metropole. These two new private cities differ from earlier large-scale urban projects because everything from basic infrastructure (including utilities, sewerage, and the installation and maintenance of roadways),

  • Ben Schoeman Freeway
    Jurgens Weidemann Technical Director BKS (Pty) Ltd [email protected] Ben Schoeman Freeway BACKGROUND of Johannesburg, Ekurhuleni (East Rand) and Tshwane In 2008 SANRAL launched the Gauteng Freeway (Pretoria region). The project aims to provide a safe and reli- Improvement Project (GFIP) which is a far-reaching up- able strategic road network and to optimise, among others, grading programme for the province’s major freeway traffic flow and the movement of freight and road-based networks in and around the Metropolitan Municipalities public transport. 1 The GFIP is being implemented in phases. The first phase 1 Widened to five lanes per carriageway comprises the improvement of approximately 180 km of 2 Bridge widening at the Jukskei River existing freeways and includes 16 contractual packages. The 3 Placing beams at Le Roux overpass network improvement comprises the adding of lanes and up- 4 Brakfontein interchange – adding a third lane grading of interchanges. Th e upgrading of the Ben Schoeman Freeway (Work Package 2 C of the GFIP) is described in this article. AIMS AND OBJECTIVES Th e upgraded and expanded freeways will signifi cantly re- duce traffi c congestion and unblock access to economic op- portunities and social development projects. Th e GFIP will provide an interconnected freeway system between the City of Johannesburg and the City of Tshwane, this system currently being one of the main arteries within the north-south corridor. One of the most significant aims of this investment for ordinary citizens is the reduction of travel times since many productive hours are wasted as a result of long travel times.

  • The Last Glacial Maximum Human Burial from Liang Lemdubu in Northern Sahulland
    12 The Last Glacial Maximum Human Burial from Liang Lemdubu in Northern Sahulland David Bulbeck School of Archaeology and Anthropology, The Australian National University, Canberra, ACT, Australia Introduction The one metre square test pit (Test Pit C) excavated by O’Connor, Spriggs and Veth at the Liang Lemdubu site, Aru, recovered a semi-complete human skeleton. When alive, the individual (‘Lemdubu Woman’) had been a tall woman of around 166cm in height, with a rugged skull and quite large teeth by female standards (Fig. 12.1). Age at death is estimated at around 30 years old based on the morphology of the pubic symphysis and stage of tooth wear. The vertebral discs, right tibia and right clavicle present a series of holes which are suggestive of metastatic lesions. All parts of the skeleton are definitely represented except the fingers and toes. The bulk of the material was recovered within the cramped depth of 30cm between Spits 18 and 23, and the remains include tilted and vertically inverted elements. These observations are incompatible with a standard primary burial and, in the most likely scenario, the corpse had decomposed to a state of bones and connective tissue which had then been buried in bundles. As discussed in Chapter 9 (this volume), the age of the burial would be placed at around 16,000–18,000 years ago based on its stratigraphic context and ESR dating of its tooth from Spit 19, but we also have a conflicting, middle Holocene chronometric determination on the bone. Although for the reasons outlined in Chapter 9 the bone date has been dismissed as unreliable, it was thought that for the sake of completeness Lemdubu Woman should be compared with both Pleistocene and Holocene aged skeletal materials.
