  14. PROVINCE AND DISTRICTS

  15. PROVINCIAL ROAD NETWORK

  16. DISTRICTS DISTRIBUTION

  17. SURFACED NETWORK CONDITION

  18. SURFACED NETWORK CONDITION CONT’D • The figure shows a continuously decreasing road infrastructure condition. Only 50% of the road networks is in acceptable condition. • This is a concerning downward trend indicating that maintenance in the network is inadequate.

  19. GRAVEL NETWORK CONDITION

  20. GRAVEL NETWORK CONDITION CONT’D • The high percentage of gravel roads in poor condition points to considerable and high backlogs need for regravelling projects. • The Province faces a challenge of sourcing suitable road construction gravel road construction material that can be used without modification.

  21. Funding needed to maintain 50% level condition of the surfaced roads network, is R1,2 billion per annum. Funding required to improve the 50% level of the surfaced roads network, is R2,0 billion per annum. Budgets are determined from condition and technical analysis

  22. Current funding (S’hamba Sonke) to the Department is R501 million and is optimized by prioritizing projects from the condition assessment based on this Funding scenario.

  23. 2010/11 ROAD MAINTENANCE PROGRAMME PEFORMANCE

  24. 2010/11 ROAD MAINTENANCE PROGRAMME PEFORMANCE

  25. Road Reserve Grass Cutting

  26. Routine Road Maintenance PERIODICBLADE: Roads should be bladed once every sixty days. i.e. Six times a year The Department can only plan within the current budget, blades 50% of the Gravel road network once a year. Frequency of blading is increased on reactive maintenance as a result of wet Weather conditions, wherein important public transport routes are prioritised. REGRAVEL: The option to regravel the road is triggered when the Gravel wearing course thickness is less than 30mm. UPGRADE TO STANDARD PAVED ROAD:Traffic > 200 cars/day and Socio-economic merit, and when the cost of regraveling becomes too expensive.

  27. In order to improve the functionality of the road network in the North West Province, the level of funding provided for maintenance should increase. Even if the available funding is optimally distributed, as per the optimised MTEF funding scenario, the impact on the overall performance of the road network is minimal. It is recommended that the level of preventive maintenance on paved roads is drastically increased to prevent a build-up of future rehabilitation needs with huge financial Implications.
