  • Traffic Calming on Higher Order Roads: a Case Study
    TRAFFIC CALMING ON HIGHER ORDER ROADS: A CASE STUDY Labuschagne, F.J.J.1 and Kruger, T.J.2 1Transportek, CSIR, P.O. Box 395, Pretoria, 0001 2Mouchel Consulting Ltd, West Hall, Parvis Road, Surrey UK KT14 6EZ. E-mail: [email protected] and [email protected] ABSTRACT The use of the more commonly used traffic calming measures, such as speed humps and mini- circles, has mostly been restricted to Class 4 and 5 streets. Inappropriate high speeds and driver behaviour, which cannot fully be addressed by law enforcement, do however also often occur on higher order roads. Application of traffic calming measures suitable to higher order urban roads or even rural roads is not addressed in existing guideline documents, and research and investigation into this issue is required. The case of Tafelberg Road in Middelburg, Mpumalanga has offered the opportunity to investigate and implement traffic calming on a higher order road. The two-lane road is constructed to very high standards, almost completely straight over more than 2 kilometres, with pavement width in excess of 11 metres and wide verges. Tafelberg Road has multiple functions in the road network - it has a through traffic function, connecting regional roads, while also serving as an access road for an adjacent residential area. The road also carries relative high volumes of heavy vehicle traffic. High speeds and perceived high noise levels lead to numerous complaints from the public. This paper describes the traffic study that was done to quantify problem areas, including speed, volumes and noise measurements and the methodology used to identify and refine measures to address the problem and an after study that was done, and its results.

  • Traffic Loading Characteristics of South African Heavy Vehicles
    TRAFFIC LOADING CHARACTERISTICS OF SOUTH AFRICAN HEAVY VEHICLES Johan Bosman RAU PO Box 524, Auckland Park, 2006, Tel: 011-489 2318. Fax: 011-489 2343. Cell 083-263-2419. E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT Roads and railways are in a sense the arteries that keep the lifeblood of the economy flowing. Approximately 70 percent of freight moves by road in South Africa and it is growing by approximately four percent per annum. Data and information on heavy vehicle (HV) volumes and axle masses are therefore indispensable to road authorities for design and maintenance purposes. Heavy vehicle data from three sources, namely 11 weigh-in-motion (WIM) scales at Traffic Control Centres (TCCs) on national roads N3 and N4, 34 WIM scales on some of the main national roads and 35 continuous traffic counting stations, was analysed. Heavy vehicles were classified into 22 classes and average axle masses and spacings were calculated for these based on the N3 TCC data. Typical E80 values for the 22 classes were calculated using the average axle masses as well as the measured mass of each individual axle. It was found that the E80-values from the latter method correspond well with the average values recommended in the TRH 16 (1991). The composition of the HV population, i.e. percentage of 2-, 3-, 4-, 5-, 6- and 7+-axle HVs, was used to classify the main road network in SA into Low, Medium and High HV roads. On Low HV roads more than 55 percent of HVs are 2-axle HVs whereas on High HV roads less than 35 percent are 2-axle HVs.

  • Important Note for the Media
    LIST OF PRIVATE SKILLS DEVELOPMENT PROVIDERS THAT HAVE LODGED APPLICATIONS TO BE REGISTERD AS PRIVATE COLLEGES WITH THE DEPARTMENT OF HIGHER EDUCATION AND TRAINING [UPDATED ON 28 January 2020] IMPORTANT NOTE FOR THE MEDIA The Department of Higher Education and Training recognizes that the information contained in the List is of public interest and that the media may wish to publish it. In order to avoid misrepresentation in the public domain, the Department of Higher Education and Training kindly requests that the published list of Skills Development Providers that have lodged applications to be registered as private colleges be accompanied by the relevant explanatory information below. The List is available for inspection at: http://www.dhet.gov.za/Registers_DocLib/Register INTRODUCTION Section 29 of the Constitution of the Republic of South Africa, 1996 (Constitution) provides that everyone has the right to establish and maintain at their own expense a private educational institution as long as the independent institution: (a) does not discriminate on the basis of race; (b) is registered with the State; and (c) maintains standards that are not inferior to standards comparable to public education institutions. Previously the private SDPs could not be registered with the Department because the Skills Development Act (SDA), 1998 (Act No. 97 of 1998), as amended, in its current form does not provide for registration of SDPs but requires them to be accredited in order to operate legally in South Africa. In order to fulfil the provision of Section 29(3) of the Constitution, a Joint Communiqué 1 of 2016: The Registration and Accreditation for Private Education Providers Offering Qualifications and Part-Qualifications on the Occupational Qualifications Sub- Framework was promulgated in October 2016.
