  • Moving People and Goods in the Gamtoos Valley: a Revealing Case Study
    MOVING PEOPLE AND GOODS IN THE GAMTOOS VALLEY: A REVEALING CASE STUDY van der Mescht, J. Department of Civil Engineering, Port Elizabeth Technikon, Private Bag X6011, Port Elizabeth, 6000 South Africa. Tel: +2741 5043550. Fax: +2741 5043491. E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT Primary transportation infrastructure in the Gamtoos Valley, a fertile agricultural district located to the west of Port Elizabeth, consists of a single-lane surfaced road namely Route 331, as well as a narrow gauge railway line. While the road pavement is in a poor condition due to lack of maintenance and extensive damage caused by an increasing number of heavy vehicles, the rail service is under-utilised and its future uncertain. The railway is used exclusively for the conveyance of export fruit via the Port Elizabeth harbour and is only operational for the duration of the citrus season that lasts from the beginning of April till the end of October. This paper reports on a preliminary investigation into the possibility of shifting passengers and freight from road to rail in order to relieve the pressure on the road system, to optimise the use of existing transportation facilities and to preserve and extend the working life of valuable road and rail assets. The logistics of hauling both imported and exported goods were analysed to establish what portion thereof could probably be moved by rail instead of by road. Other issues that were looked at included the offering of rail concessions to private companies, the introduction of a passenger service between Loerie and Patensie and the impact that current policies of the national rail operator, Spoornet, have on the provision of a satisfactory service to existing and potential rail clients.

  • Eastern Cape
    Eastern Cape Introduction South Africa’s ‘wild’ province, the Eastern Cape features expanses of untouched beach, bush and forest. This is Nelson Mandela’s home province, and an area with some enticing attractions – pristine beaches, abundant wildlife and spectacular scenery. Top attractions Addo Elephant National Park This is one of the few reserves in the world that offers the Big Seven – elephant, rhino, buffalo, lion, leopard, great white sharks and southern right whales. The 164 000ha park, which is situated near Port Elizabeth, is rated as one of the best places in Africa to see elephants up close. It also has the world’s largest breeding colony of Cape gannets, rare flightless dung beetles, 1 000-year-old cycads, and hundreds of pastel-coloured proteas. Cambedoo National Park This stunningly beautiful reserve falls within the Karoo and is home to rare plants and wildlife. It almost completely surrounds the town of Graaff-Reinet, the oldest town in the Eastern Cape. Its most famous attraction, however, is the Valley of Desolation, made up of spectacular dolerite pillars. Prehistoric fossils have been discovered on the floor of the valley. There are plenty of animals to be found, including the bat-eared fox, meerkat, vervet monkeys and Cape mountain zebra. Baviaanskloof wilderness area The Baviaanskloof mega-reserve is a natural, unspoilt mountain kingdom. The 200km-long Baviaanskloof, the Valley of the Baboons, is so named because of the large numbers of baboons in the area. Spectacular plant and animal life compete for attention. Tsitsikamma National Park This park forms part of the Garden Route National Park.

  • Palaeontological Specialist Assessment: Combined Field-Based and Desktop Study PROPOSED KAREEDOUW-DIEPRIVIER 132 Kv TRANSMISSION
    1 Palaeontological specialist assessment: combined field-based and desktop study PROPOSED KAREEDOUW-DIEPRIVIER 132 kV TRANSMISSION LINE PROJECT, HUMANSDORP MAGISTERIAL DISTRICT, EASTERN CAPE: REVISED ROUTE. John E. Almond PhD (Cantab.) Natura Viva cc, PO Box 12410 Mill Street, Cape Town 8010, RSA [email protected] August 2016 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Eskom are proposing to construct approximately 35 km of overhead 132 kV powerline from the Dieprivier Substation through to the Kou-Kamma Substation near Kareedouw in the Humansdorp District Municipality, Eastern Cape. The project also entails decommissioning of existing powerlines, the construction of a new substation at Dieprivier, the extension of the existing Kareedouw sub-station (Kou-Kamma) as well as the construction of new minor roads. The proposed development footprint on the southern and northern sides of the Langkloof is underlain by Palaeozoic bedrocks of the Table Mountain Group and Bokkeveld Group (Cape Supergroup). Three of the formations involved – the Late Ordovician Cederberg Formation as well as the Early Devonian Baviaanskloof and Gydo Formations – are known elsewhere within the Cape Fold Belt for their important records of marine and terrestrial fossils. However in the Humansdorp region the bedrocks have generally suffered high levels of tectonic deformation and chemical weathering, seriously compromising their fossil heritage. No fossil remains were observed during a one-day palaeontological field assessment, neither within the Palaeozoic bedrocks nor in the overlying Late Caenozoic superficial sediments (colluvium, alluvium, pedocretes, soil etc). On the basis of the current field assessment as well as the paucity of previous fossil records from the Humansdorp region it is concluded that the palaeontological sensitivity of the Palaeozoic bedrocks here is low due to high levels of tectonic deformation (e.g.

    Statistical Based Regional Flood Frequency Estimation Study for South Africa Using Systematic, Historical and Palaeoflood Data Pilot Study – Catchment Management Area 15 by D van Bladeren, P K Zawada and D Mahlangu SRK Consulting & Council for Geoscience Report to the Water Research Commission on the project “Statistical Based Regional Flood Frequency Estimation Study for South Africa using Systematic, Historical and Palaeoflood Data” WRC Report No 1260/1/07 ISBN 078-1-77005-537-7 March 2007 DISCLAIMER This report has been reviewed by the Water Research Commission (WRC) and approved for publication. Approval does not signify that the contents necessarily reflect the views and policies of the WRC, nor does mention of trade names or commercial products constitute endorsement or recommendation for use EXECUTIVE SUMMARY INTRODUCTION During the past 10 years South Africa has experienced several devastating flood events that highlighted the need for more accurate and reasonable flood estimation. The most notable events were those of 1995/96 in KwaZulu-Natal and north eastern areas, the November 1996 floods in the Southern Cape Region, the floods of February to March 2000 in the Limpopo, Mpumalanga and Eastern Cape provinces and the recent floods in March 2003 in Montagu in the Western Cape. These events emphasized the need for a standard approach to estimate flood probabilities before developments are initiated or existing developments evaluated for flood hazards. The flood peak magnitudes and probabilities of occurrence or return period required for flood lines are often overlooked, ignored or dealt with in a casual way with devastating effects. The National Disaster and new Water Act and the rapid rate at which developments are being planned will require the near mass production of flood peak probabilities across the country that should be consistent, realistic and reliable.
