Johannesburg roads infrastructure improvement programme, South Africa
Name and Location
Johannesburg roads infrastructure improvement programme, Gauteng, South Africa.
Client
Johannesburg Roads Agency (JRA).
Project Description
The project involves several major roads infrastructure projects in the City of Johannesburg’s Region C during the 2015/16 financial year starting from July 1, 2015.
Region C comprises the north-western area of the city, which includes Dobsonville, Doornkop, Braamfischerville, Weltevreden Park, Roodepoort and Ruimsig; parts of Randburg; and northern suburbs such as Olivedale, Northriding, Cosmo City and Zandspruit.
The programme includes the rebuilding of two badly flood-damaged culverts; road resurfacing, reconstruction and rehabilitation; and an ongoing infrastructure maintenance programme.
The bulk of the programme’s capital expenditure will be channelled towards the city’s extensive gravel roads upgrade programme, benefiting a number of areas in Region C.
Tshepisong will receive R22-million from the programme, Doornkop and Thulani R23-million and Braamfischerville R30-million.
The gravel roads, associated stormwater drainage systems and pavements or sidewalks will be upgraded to asphalt surface.
The JRA has also set aside an additional R10-million to continue the conversion of open stormwater drains into underground systems in Braamfischerville and a further R5-million for essential upgrades of stormwater drainage systems in Mmesi Park and Flamingo.
Value
The JRA has allocated more than R90-million of its capital budget to fund the projects.
