Project Construction of Port of Ngqura

• Overview
• The construction of the Ngqura Port is
  effectively the key to unlock the potential of
  the Coeg IDZ. Already over 3 million cubic metres
  of soil has been excavated from the future basin.
  Key parts of current work
• Marine infrastructure (keywalls and excavation of
  turning basin)
• Sand bypass system
• Dredging is scheduled to start in June
• Parallel developments on the land side are
  building the IDZ infrastructure and providing
  bulk infrastructure for the industrial land and
  access roads
• Socio-economic impact
• It is expected that during construction phase
  approximately 2000 jobs will be created, while
  the permanent jobs in the port will be fairly
  few, the potential of the IDZ is enormous (but
  cannot be quantified at this stage).

Project Value R 29 billion
Restructuring Model Chosen Re-capitalisation and internal restructuring
Jobs created / Jobs Lost Not quantifiable as knock effect depends on Macro-economic changes
Project Manager Chris Dutton (Chief Engineer)
Contact Details [phone]

• Intro
• Spoornet has a fleet of outdated locomotives and
  wagons. The average age of the existing
  locomotive fleet is 25 Years. The operating cost,
  reliability and service quality of running these
  old locomotives has caused the withdrawal of
  services and the pricing of services beyond the
  carrying capacity of the market.
• Socio-economic impact
• The recapitalisation programme will allow more
  efficient locomotives to be used in the rural
  areas(primarily diesel).
• This will allow the re-vitalisation of the branch
  line network and act as an economic multiplier in
  rural economies.
• The overall efficiency and quality of rail
  services will improve dramatically, thereby
  driving down real pricing of rail services, and
  also increasing the carrying capacity of the rail
  network. This will result in a shift from road to
  rail (in conjunction with Government policy
  initiatives) that will arrest the current level
  of road degradation and related costs.
• It is envisaged that R 9 Bil of the forecast R 10
  bil capex on wagons, will be spent in RSA. Less
  than 50 of the R 19 Bil total expenditure on
  locomotives will be spent abroad. The components
  sourced will be those that are not manufactured
  in RSA. The successful suppliers will be required
  to transfer skill over the period to ensure a
  reduced reliance on foreign expertise, and will
  be required to embed their technology in Spoornet
  and develop local support networks.

Contact Details [phone]

• Intro
• The fixed infrastructure plays a significant role
  in the operational efficiencies and carrying
  capacity of the rail network. The spending on
  this item will be spread across all the provinces
  and will be procured locally wherever possible.
• As can be seen by some of the examples to follow,
  the line by line assessment and the development
  of regional strategies for the Light and low
  density line system, that will be done in
  consultation with provincial and local
  government, business, labour and communities,
  will require that this investment be spent in
  areas all around the country and not merely in
  the big cities and their linkages.
• Socio-economic impact
• The procurement of goods and services in the
  upgrade localities will have a knock-on effect in
  those regional and local economies.
• The raising of the carrying capacities and
  efficiencies of lines will have a downward
  pressure on real pricing in the medium term and
  therefore stimulate local economic development
  and reduce the real cost of logistics faced by
  rural and peri-urban production.
• This will have the net effect of reducing the
  cost of exporting goods from marginal areas in
  the country, and therefore allow the expansion of
  the basket of goods currently exported.
• This expenditure is further required to raise the
  safety levels in some areas, support the
  industrial, mining and development strategies of
  the Provincial and Local Governments, support the
  integrated transport strategies at local and
  provincial levels and also raise the levels of
  service delivery to surrounding communities.

• Intro
• This is line is being built to allow the export
  of ferro-chrome from Brits to Richards Bay.
• Socio-economic impact
• The construction of this line will ensure that
  the mining output is moved on the railway line
  and thereby prevent the degradation of the road
  network in the area. The road maintenance savings
  are significant.
• The construction of this line in support of the
  mining development and beneficiation will have
  significant multiplier effects in the region and
  locality.
• The total value of product moved to export would
  be R 2.7 Bil per annum.
• The total amount of inbound supplies and process
  elements would be plus or minus 135 Tons per
  annum.

Project Umtata Amabele Line Upgrade

• Intro
• The area is suffering an economic decline.
  Several factories and facilities have closed. The
  Eastern Cape Government, in conjunction with
  Spoornet is upgrading the line to act as an
  anchor infrastructure corridor. This will raise
  the carrying capacity of the line and thereby
  raise the ability to move goods from the inland
  areas to export facilities in East London.
• An IDZ has been approved at the port and rail
  facilities in East London. This line will be the
  prime connection between the IDZ and the inland
  areas.
• This line is critical to preventing environmental
  and infrastructural degradation, as the impact of
  all the traffic on road would have major
  environmental and road maintenance cost
  implications.
• This project has reversed the non-viable status
  of the line and represents the kind of outcome of
  the line by line analysis and regional
  consultative process that would be a net
  contributor to a regionally distributed economic
  value add infrastructure investment programme.
• Socio-economic impact
• The traffic on the railway line has decreased
  from 19 000 tons in 1997 to 7 000 tons. This
  traffic was mainly coal and wood poles.
• The upgrading of the line will support the
  planned industrial, mining and agricultural
  development in the area and is planned to raise
  the maximum traffic to 1.5 Million tons a year
  once the standing timber has matured and the
  mining production has come on line.
• The commodity profile on the line will change to
  mainly timber to chipping facilities in KZN,
  agricultural and mining products.
