MEC Diale-Tlabela to conduct oversight visit at two road project sites

Gauteng MEC for Transport and Logistics, Kedibone Diale-Tlabela, will on Thursday, 03 August 2023, conduct an oversight visit at two of the Department’s road construction projects, R82 and P214 Roads, respectively, to assess progress.

The R82 connects the City of Johannesburg and the industrial nodes of the Sedibeng District Municipality. The project is undertaken to upgrade the existing single carriageway into a dual carriageway. This is to also improve the road condition as well as its carrying capacity.

MEC Diale-Tlabela will then proceed to Road P241/1, a main road linking Johannesburg and Lenasia. The project entails pavement rehabilitation of the single carriageway (R554) starting at P241/1 and R82 intersection towards the municipal boundary, past the M10 in Lenasia.

Both projects are aligned to the Department’s strategic objective of #GrowingGautengTogether through Smart Mobility as well as the #AgaLeRona Accelerator Programme.

Media is invited and details are as follows:

First project site (R82)

Time: 10h00

Venue: R82

Second project site (P214/1)

Time: 11:30

Venue: P241
