Project Planning Objectives In conclusion we have met the following objectives: Understood the medium to long term land-use and transport infrastructure scenarios for the study area. Improved N2 access to Philippi Industria and its linkage to the Airport & Airport Industrial Area. Improved N2 access to CTIA and adjacent industrial areas (Airport Industria, Airport City) Improved public transport access on: Proposed IRT corridor along Eisleben/New Borcherds Quarry, with links to Klipfontein & Wetton-Lansdowne Road Corridors Extend N2: 3rd lane/bmt lane from Borcherds Quarry Interchange to Mew Way Interchange. NMT infrastructure along the route Improved NMT accessibility across the N2 Allowed in the infrastructure planning for Airport Beltway Expressway improvements. Supported a consistent road network/hierarchy in the study area. Paving the way towards the City s vision of a node at Philippi
Way Forward Phase 1: 3 rd lane on N2 underway Remaining Phases: Scheduled for 2018/19 Finalise detailed design Relocation of Steenbras water main Relocation of informal housing within road prism
