Freight will keep moving
on the Eastern Cape roads
for the foreseeable future –
while Transnet Freight Rail
is focusing on bulk ore out
of the Northern Cape rather
than container traffic. The
South African National Roads
Agency Ltd (Sanral) has
announced six major road
projects, including the longawaited
toll road between
East London and Durban.
The toll road will give
businesses in East London
and the Transkei two ports
with direct calls to choose
from – Durban and Ngqura.
The total investment in
the national road network
in Nelson Mandela Bay and
the Sarah Baartman District
Municipality will total around
R1.6 billion.
