- W346516762 abstract "Freight transport in South Africa is dominated by two modes, namely road transport and rail transport. The current dominance of road is not only linked to high value commodities, perishables or short transport distances, but has recently been extended to include freight transport of bulk low value goods such as coal and iron ore, previously the domain of rail transport. The condition of the rural road network is deteriorating rapidly as traffic volumes and axle loads increase on an ageing network. The primary road network is in most instances completed, with maintenance and rehabilitation taking precedence over capacity enhancements, albeit of a limited extent when compared to actual requirements. The rail system has been described as being in a near state of collapse due to enormous underinvestment since road replaced rail as the dominant freight transport mode from the mid 1980s. Numerous studies have been undertaken both locally and internationally to ascertain the most cost effective and beneficial form of freight transport, but in a number of instances these studies ignore certain basic externalities that require consideration and analysis to provide a meaningful and representative outcome. Only once all costs have been fully internalised can the performance of freight transport be accurately computed and investment in freight transport infrastructure satisfactorily justified. The aim of this paper is firstly to present the framework of a study designed to evaluate through a holistic systems approach the total costs of the primary modes (road and rail) of freight transport along the Gauteng to Durban Freight Corridor, taking into account all significant internal and external costs associated with such modes of freight transport. A preliminary program and the provisional list of role-players currently providing assistance and co-operation will be presented. Furthermore the paper will provide an overview of the respective road and rail corridors with respect to the basic infrastructure of the systems, the current trafficking levels and anticipated capacity of the systems under current infrastructure conditions." @default.
