The Roads and Transport sector is, without doubt, seen as one of the key sectors critical to the succcessful implementation of programmes in achieving such status.. ...read more Road Infrastructure The Government has made a considerable to base investment decisions on sound economic and technical principles. This has created a situation where roads in poor condition and low volume roads particularly in the northern sector have been ranked low on the priority list. To arrest this situation, other models are being investigated so that different criteria can be agreed upon for investment on roads in poor condition or with low traffic volumes. Also the condition of the road network has to be stabilised after significantly clearing network deterioration, before highest priority will be given to routine and periodic maintenance instead of rehabilitation and reconstruction.

It looks at all public transport services - minibus taxis, subsidised buses and rail - as well as private transport and freight transport. Operating licence strategy, rationalisation plans and the public transport plans were also considered in its formulation.

Transforming Johannesburg's public transport into a world-class system has been an elusive goal. However, with the impetus of the upcoming 2010 FIFA World Cup and the development of viable alternatives, a new vision of effective and sustainable public transport is beginning to take shape.

Contact: Jacques van Zijl Tel: 011 870 4613 Transportation modelling Working with the CSIR between July 2004 and June 2006, the transportation department drew up the Integration of the Development of Future Development Planning Scenarios. The aim was to investigate the development proposals in the City's Spatial Development Framework, and to look at the potential implications for the transport system. Key to the plans are the cost of providing a viable public transport system; the capacity of the transport infrastructure; and the value of alternative development interventions. If necessary, some aspects of the Spatial Development Framework may be revised. Scenarios were developed for the years 2010, 2020 and 2030, with the strongest focus on 2010.

The Jawaharlal Nehru National Urban Renewal Mission. There is no doubt that India by and large still lives in our villages. But the development process of the past five decades has made a significant difference. An increasing share of our population now lives in urban India. Urbanisation is a relentless process, which has come to stay and has to be factored into all our developmental thinking and development processes. We have already added 65 million persons to our urban population in the decade of the `90s alone. We are poised to have nearly fifty per cent of India living in our cities by the earlier part of the present century and that should give you an idea of the magnitude of the development and renewal task that awaits all of us.With urbanization comes the need to invest in infrastructure and improve the quality of life in our cities. Rapid urbanization has not only outpaced infrastructure development, but has also brought in its train a terrible downside the downside of proliferating slums, the downside of increasing homelessness, the downside of growing urban poverty and crime, of relentless march of pollution and ecological damage. This gives you an idea of the massive challenge that lies ahead. Recognising this challenge of an acute urban crisis, the National Common Minimum Programme had stressed that the government initiate a process of urban renewal. I am happy that today we are commencing this new effort through the launch of the Jawaharlal Nehru National Urban Renewal Mission. I compliment the Ministries of Urban Development, Urban Employment and Poverty Alleviation, Planning Commission, state governments, urban local bodies and other experts who have participated in the preparation of this Mission. This Mission is the single largest initiative of the Government of India for a planned development of our cities. It responds to the long-standing demand for tapping the vast potential and vitality of our cities.
