We are delighted to say that the support our growing economy without the single-minded world-class quality of the South African national road commitment, drive and energy of Nazir Alli. network will remain as visible testimony to his tenure. His solid academic and professional background in Dipuo Peters transport and engineering made him the logical choice Minister of Transport when the government of President Nelson Mandela was looking for the best candidate to establish and lead the South African National Roads Agency in 1998. It proved to be an inspired choice. For Nazir Alli roads are far more than rock and gravel and asphalt. They are primarily conceived, designed and built to connect people to places and opportunities. In a young democracy such as South Africa, roads form part of the broader developmental infrastructure that contributes to the quality of life of citizens – especially those relegated to the margins of society because of decades of skewed and discriminatory planning. This developmental approach to what can so easily be an arena of numbers and technology was also evident in Mr Alli’s commitment to road safety and his determination that SANRAL would play a role in this important issue through the provision of safer road environments. Similarly, SANRAL serves as an example to many other state-owned entities on how black-owned companies and emerging enterprises managed by women, the youth and the disabled can be brought into the value chain and become job creators in their own right. Even his critics will agree that Nazir Alli had an unwavering commitment to good governance and sound financial management. The successive unqualified audits, the confidence shown by both local and foreign investors and the decisions by rating agencies to affirm SANRAL’s ratings despite turmoil on global markets are testimonies to his prudent leadership. 7 THE SOUTH AFRICAN NATIONAL ROADS AGENCY SOC LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 8 Table of contents CHAIRPERSON’S REPORT 10 REPORT OF THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER 14 BOARD OF DIRECTORS 18 SECTION 1: THE NATIONAL ROAD NETWORK 23 1.1 Sustainability reporting 24 1.2 Funding 24 1.3 Technological innovation 25 1.4 Engineering 28 1.5 Road network management 48 1.6 Road safety management 53 1.7 Land portfolio management 61 SECTION 2: DEVELOPING COMMUNITIES AND SUSTAINING THE ENVIRONMENT 63 2.1 Community development 64 2.2 Environmental management 76 SECTION 3: CORPORATE OVERVIEW, PERFORMANCE AND GOVERNANCE INFORMATION 87 3.1 Corporate overview 88 3.2 Corporate performance information 110 3.3 Corporate governance 116 SECTION 4: FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2015 129 4.1 Report of the Auditor-General 130 4.2 Director’s Report 134 4.3 Statement of Responsibility by the Board of Directors 142 4.4 Certificate by the Company Secretary 143 Statement of Financial Position 144 Statement of Comprehensive Income 145 Statement of Change in Equity 146 Statement of Cash Flow 147 Accounting Policies 148 Notes to the Financial Statements 162 THE SOUTH AFRICAN NATIONAL ROADS AGENCY SOC LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2016 CHAIRPERSON’S In the past year our network has grown to 21 490km.

  • Life Cycle Carbon Footprint of the North-South Corridor Road Network Philippa Notten and Ilhaam Patel December 2013
    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.

DPRU Policy Brief No. 00/P5 December 2000 1 DPRU Policy Brief 00/P5 Foreword The Development Policy Research Unit (DPRU), located within the University of Cape Town’s School of Economics, was formed in 1990 to undertake economic policy-oriented research. The aim of the unit’s work is the achievement of more effective public policy for industrial development in South and Southern Africa. The DPRU’s mission is to undertake internationally recognised policy research that contributes to the quality and effectiveness of such policy. The unit is involved in research activities in the following areas: · labour markets and poverty · regulatory reform · regional integration These policy briefs are intended to catalyse policy debate. They express the views of their respective authors and not necessarily those of the DPRU. They present the major research findings of the Industrial Strategy Project (ISP).

    Analysis of the Relationship between the Severity of Road Traffic Crashes and the Human factors involved: N4 Toll Route Case Study by Andries Johannes Gelderblom Thesis presented in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Engineering in Civil Engineering in the Faculty of Engineering at Stellenbosch University Supervisor: Prof. Marion Sinclair March 2021 Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za Declaration By submitting this thesis electronically, I declare that the entirety of the work contained therein is my own, original work, that I am the sole author thereof (save to the extent explicitly otherwise stated), that reproduction and publication thereof by Stellenbosch University will not infringe any third party rights and that I have not previously in its entirety or in part submitted it for obtaining any qualification. Signature: AJ Gelderblom ______________________ Date: March 2021 Copyright © 2021 Stellenbosch University All rights reserved i Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za Abstract Road safety is considered to be one of the most critical concerns in contemporary society. As a result, reducing road traffic crashes is, arguably, the most critical aspect that needs to be addressed within a roadway system. Injuries and fatalities resulting from traffic crashes are a serious problem. Globally, the number of road traffic deaths continues to rise, reaching a devastating 1.35 million fatalities in 2016, which equates to almost 3700 people being killed on the world’s roads every day. Despite the efforts made by government agencies and the engineering community, the road crash fatality rate in South Africa remains higher than the global average.
