INTRODUCTION Alternative Energy Solutions (Pty) Ltd PO Box 4939 Tygervalley, South Africa 7536 (hereafter referred to as AES) is the primary project developer of a photovoltaic power generation facility. AES appointed EIMS consultants to carry out an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) in terms of the National Environmental Management Act (NEMA), (Act No. 107 of 1998) as amended in 2010, for the construction and operation of the photovoltaic power generation facility and associated infrastructure. AES then appointed DB9 Consulting Pty (Ltd) to undertake a specialist transport study for the proposed facility. This Transport study addresses the following traffic and transportation related implications of the proposed photovoltaic power generation facility: Existing traffic volumes on the N14 & Pella Road passing the site Acceptability from a traffic safety point of view of the location of the entrance/s to the proposed facility Safety of drivers from possible visual distraction from the photovoltaic panels, given the surrounding context (not applicable, distance from Pella Road min. 1.3km for North site, 2km for West site, 6km from South site) Risk posed by construction and operational vehicles Limitations of this Transport study Based on existing volumes of traffic, recommendations for mitigation measures for traffic impacts, including: o Mitigation of visual distraction (see above) o Avoidance of accidents o Other recommendations 4 2. LOCATION OF THE PROPOSED VOLTAIC POWER GENERATION FACILITY The proposed photovoltaic power generation facility is planned to be located to the west of Pella in the Northern Cape. The site is located adjacent to the Pella - Goodhouse road (hereafter referred to as Pella Road) as shown in Figure 1 (Letter “A”) below. Figure 1: locality map 5 3. EXISTING ROAD NETWORK AND TRAFFIC CONDITIONS 3.1 Description of the potential traffic routing During construction the materials and equipment will be routed to the site as follows: Cape Town Harbour, onto the N1 freeway, then turning onto the N7, thereafter onto the N14.

    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.

The agency has attempted to demonstrate the varied dimensions of its work and indicate how they are strategically coherent. It has continued to comply with the reporting requirements of the PFMA while incorporating major principles of integrated reporting. This new approach is supported by the adoption of an integrated planning framework in SANRAL’s new strategy, Horizon 2030. In selecting qualitative and quantitative information for the report, the agency has been guided by Horizon 2030 and the principles of disclosure and materiality.
