Name of the Project
Port of Durban road rehabilitation project.
Location
KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa.
Project Owner/s
Transnet National Ports Authority (TNPA).
Project Description
Intensified pressure caused by an influx of trucks on the Port of Durban’s road infrastructure has prompted the rehabilitation of roads in key container-handling port precincts – the Container and Maydon wharfs, and the liquid bulk Island View precinct.
The Maydon wharf will take precedence, with 16 roads set for repairs, followed by Island View, with three roads, and Bayhead, with two.
In addition to repairing the structural defects, the restoration of functional defects, such as surface drainage issues, owing to damaged manholes and inlets caused by heavy vehicles, is included in the project scope.
