“The first phase of the project, which included the construction of temporary bypasses and upgrading the main carriageway between Siyabuswa and Marble Hall in Limpopo, is nearly complete,” Nzimande said.Three were converted to traffic circles and one to a butterfly intersection.Three more construction work packages for Limpopo and five more for Mpumalanga will be rolled out in the current financial year, Nzimande said.
Moloto Road has been known for a very long time for fatal crashes involving buses. On Monday, four people died and 23 were taken to hospital after a collision involving a Putco bus. One more person died on Tuesday, taking the death toll to five. Nzimande admitted that other forms of transport could also be considered to deal with the Moloto Road problem.
"It is very clear that we do need [a] Moloto rail. The issue is that government will have to find funds for that…We don’t have enough funds for extending rail. We will have to work at that as we regard rail as the backbone of public transport,” Nzimande said.
They say that every year!!
Waste of money
What about unemployment? When are you gonna create jobs for the unemployed 😭😭
Tender will be given to cronies who've never performed such a project. Money will have been given to other cronies involved in decision making from national,provincial en local governments.The road construction company will only get a fraction thereof.
Same of it will magically disappear into thin air😅 watch the space.
