7 Rail Development Plans Gauteng: Freight Ring Concept Gauteng is at the centre of most regional and port connections in Southern Africa Flows are complex and there are no clear bypass routes A freight ring can potentially - Facilitate uninterrupted flow of freight Provide a key link between Hubs and Terminals Provide dedicated freight routes segregated from congested PRASA routes.

8 Rail Development Plans Gauteng Freight Ring: Finding a viable route Northern Bypass a. Cost but unavoidable Western Bypass a. Cost b. Environmental Route perhaps not needed East-West through pass a. Cost b. Environmental c. Lack of Transportation reserve Western Bypass a. Cost b. Constructability: sink hole formation c. Topography: Gradients (Magaliesburg) d. Environmental Key Options Eliminated Potential solutions July 009 Southern / Western Bypass a. Cost b. Constructability: sink hole formation c. Topography: Tunnels required d. Gold Mining activity South Eastern Bypass a. Cost Slide

9 Rail Development Plans Gauteng Freight Ring Concept The eventual freight ring will not be closed on the western side because no feasible route was found. Instead, a bypass further west connecting Rustenburg, Swartruggens, Lichtenburg and Mafikeng is proposed p but only if volumes justify the investment. July 009 Slide
