II Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za Abstract Documenting readers’ responses to linguistic landscapes (LLs) is a common field of enquiry in linguistic landscape studies (LLS) (cf. Garvin, 2010; Lou, 2009; Malinowski, 2009). However, these studies have predominantly served to determine the LL for the participants and have drawn their attention to multilingual signage in an attempt to uncover the singular intention behind a sign.

  • Port Elizabeth Office Launch Article
    Bigen Africa expands to Port Elizabeth Bigen Africa, a thought-leading multinational infrastructure development consultancy, has expanded its South African footprint to include Port Elizabeth, ensuring full-spectrum service capability in the Eastern Cape. Although Bigen Africa already has well-established branches in Cape Town and East London, a presence in the Friendly City will help drive socio- economic change in the region through the company’s core capabilities, namely engineering, management consulting, development financing and advisory services. Bigen Africa’s Western Cape clients have had ample evidence of the company’s capabilities through its development of many landmark projects, such as Ratanga Junction, the Canal Walk shopping centre and Cape Gate in Cape Town. Other retail projects in the province include the Daimler Chrysler Lifestyle Centre at Century City, BMW Forsdicks offices in Tyger Valley, Audi Centre in Cape Town, Santam head office in Bellville (structural design), the Clock Tower at the V & A Waterfront, Safmarine House and Metlife Centre. Bigen Africa’s offices in East London and Mthatha provide services to clients such as the Department of Roads and Transport, Department of Human Settlements, Eskom Eastern Region, East London IDZ, Amathole Water, Coega Development Corporation, SANRAL, Chris Hani District Municipality, Alfred Nzo District Municipality and the King Sabata Dalindyebo Local Municipality. More recently, Bigen Africa was commissioned by the Buffalo City Metropolitan Municipality to undertake the design and site supervision of the Second Creek housing project in East London. From its new PE office, the company will be assisting Eastern Cape clients with a similar full-spectrum service offering.
