Multimillion rand upgrade to improve road safety

Monday, April 10, 2017

Pretoria - Gauteng MEC for Roads and Transport, Dr Ismail Vadi, will on Tuesday launch the rehabilitation project of the R28 Road - a single carriageway between Sebokeng and Westonaria.

The project is located in the southwest of Johannesburg, between the Golden Highway (P73, N1) and N12 (P3/6). The road serves as a bypass to Johannesburg from the south towards North West province and beyond. It also serves as a collector/distributor for the rural area along the route.

The R230 million road project is envisioned to improve vehicle and pedestrian safety, improve travel time as well as create job opportunities for the local community.

The project scope will cover approximately 29.24 kilometres and includes the restoration of road markings and signage, as well as construction of new drainage structure. – SAnews.gov.za
