Daily Dispatch: R72 Due for Upgrades of Some Sections

October 10, 2007 by RF

His assurance follows warnings by Democratic Alliance spokesperson for roads, Pine Pienaar, who said a probe by his party found the perception created by the Eastern Cape government that the R72 will be rebuilt or resurfaced before 2010 could be highly misleading.

Pienaar said consulting engineers have assured him that it would take no less than seven years to rebuild the 270 km coastal road between East London and the Ncanarha interchange near Coega. “Our information shows that even if the government employs two of the best contractors in the country to rebuild the road, they will make no more than 30 km progress per year at a cost of R10-million per kilometre. Planning and design will take at least a year.”

He said while the 100 km closest to East London could be resealed, the other 170 km would have to be rebuilt completely.

“This will mean that the rebuilding alone will take at least five and a half years. We are concerned that businesses on the Sunshine Coast could have been misled to believe that they will have a perfect road by 2010,” Pienaar said.
