- W2164653645 abstract "In the 1985 Transport updating study for the region that forms Gauteng today, a minimum construction programme for the development of transport infrastructure was proposed. It was also cautioned that the effects in the future of the area of neglecting such investments would initially not be seen, but would result in serious congestion and transport inefficiencies 10 to 15 years later. Unfortunately these investments were not done and the resultant effects on the transportation systems of the Province are all too evident today; to such an extent that whereas Gauteng previously was responsible for more than 40% of the country’s GDP, it has now dropped to 38% (1) . Even so, this represents approximately 9% of Africa’s GDP. The need to reinvigorate Gauteng’s economy has recently renewed attention with various ambitious developmental projects being launched by Government (2) . At the same time the need was very evident to embark on a holistic and wide-ranging initiative to resolve the congestion problems being experienced in the Province. In considering the issues involved it was clear that it would not be possible to build the province out of the problem, but that an integrated approach including land use/transportation interaction, would be required. However, it was also realized that new capacity would have to be created as well. This paper sets out to consider the issues, focuses on the nature of congestion, and discusses options available in the traffic and transportation engineering toolkits as well as in the ambit of land-use planning, to ensure a holistic and wide-ranging approach being brought to bear on the problem. The paper hastens to acknowledge that much has been done over the years in this regard. Gauteng’s transportation would not have been in the reasonably healthy, albeit declining, position it is in, but for efforts in this regard by many practitioners in the past. However, it is believed that the only way to reverse present trends and to ensure a vigorous future economy is by a concerted coordinated drive, adequately supported by holistic transport planning and implementation. It is trusted that this paper will contribute to this goal." @default.
