3
Rationale Context

• In 1994 over 5 000 personnel were responsible for
  roads.
• Unskilled personnel were not proportionately
  distributed in regions/districts.
• Excess staff in general.
• Shortage of labourers in some regions.
• Shortage of managers.
• A larger portion of the budget went into salaries
  and wages.
• Moratorium on appointment of personnel.

4
New Role

• Road network to be repositioned to serve a new
  role.
• Support the political agenda of democracy,
  integration and unity.
• It must promote access to different geographic
  and cultural areas.
• Support economic growth and development.
• Prioritise unconnected communities.
• Provide affordable access to areas of social and
  economic opportunities.

5
RAL Established

• Roads Agency established to own and manage
  Provincial roads.
• Only a small and key engineering staff was
  transferred.
• It had to remain small and agile.
• Rely on private sector for roads delivery.
• No equipment, no workshops no labourers.
• Fast procurement process and specialised staff.
• Mandate BE DIFFERENT BE EFFICIENT

6
Shareholding

• MEC a shareholder on behalf of government.
• Responsible for
• Setting strategic direction.
• Providing the budget.
• Approving annual business plan.
• Shareholders Expectations
• Maintenance of roads in acceptable condition
  relative to budget.
• Spending the budget on time.
• Compliance with laws, policies, and regulations.
• Achieving business plan objectives.

7
Legal Framework

• NPRA Provincial Roads Act 7 of 1998.
• Gives it ownership and management of roads.
• Planning, design, construction, maintenance,
  rehabilitation, and control.

8
Legal Framework

• This means that
• The provincial govt has full powers and
  responsibility over provincial roads.
• Any legislation required has to be passed by the
  legislature.
• The Agency has a legal responsibility as an
  owner.
• The directors are legally answerable for its
  operations and conduct.

9
Prov Mangement Framework

• Roads classified according to functional
  hierachy.
• Ownership goes accordingly.
• Each roads authority is backed by constitution
  and laws.
• Roads have to be developed and maintained
  irrespective of ownership authority.
• All Roads Authorities need to cooperate to
  preserve the integrity of the network.

10
Creating Prov Framework

• Provincial roads have been classified accordingly
• Gazzetted all as public roads.
• Transferring some to national govt.
• SANRAL taken about 1 500km.
• Gazzetted the transfer of all municipal roads to
  districts.
• Districts to agree on the classification with
  local municipalities.
• All roads authorities have to plan together.

11
ROAD NETWORK

• 22 062km, Only 6 638km tarred.
• Former Transvaal better
• Waterberg 1 995km
• Vhembe 1 287km
• Capricorn 867km
• Mopani 1 181km
• Sekhukhune 1 308km

12
ROAD MANAGEMENT STRATEGY

• Priority is preventative maintenance to avoid
  deterioration.
• Selective routine maintenance
• Prioritise patching of potholes.
• Installation and cleaning of drainage structures.
• Selective/Spot improvements of gravel roads
• Limited regravelling
• Seasonal grass-cutting in some areas
• Tarring new roads.

13
CRITERIA FOR TARRING

• Tarring of priority roads
• Connecting the Province.
• Connecting North to South and East to West.
• Creating a grid pattern.
• 10km to a tarred road for everyone.
• High traffic volumes (600 vehicles/day.
• Linking settlements with areas of social and
  economic opportunities.
• Prioritizing neglected/isolated areas.
• Connecting mining, tourism and agricultural dev
  areas.

TARRING PROGRAMME

• Drawn a ten-year tarring programme.
• Total priority network is 3 300km at R13,2
  billion.
• Developed a four-year plan.
• Pledge to do 1 320km in 4 years.
• Need to tar 330km pa at R1 320m.
• Average annual budget of R500m.
• Can only tar 125km pa.
• Will take about 11 years to tar 1 320km.
• Will take 26 years to tar 3 300km.
• Backlog growing annually.

44
CONCLUSION

• Funding not enough.
• Increase funding to reduce backlog.
