Department of Roads and Transport 2023/08/20 - 22:00



​On Tuesday 15 August 2023, MEC Kedibone Diale-Tlabela undertook an oversight visit to Allandale Road (K73) and R101 (K101) Midrand construction projects as part of fast tracking the delivery of transport infrastructure. Both road projects are being built to help relieve heavy traffic congestion during peak hours. 

They are also contributing greatly towards growing the economy and improving service delivery in the surrounding area, whilst empowering the community with much needed skills and work experience. 

Commenting on K73 Road, MEC Diale-Tlabela commended the contractors for work done and adhering to the set deadline, the road will be completed and ready for handover by October 2023. MEC proceeded to K101 where the project manager indicated that road rehabilitation has been delayed due to the redesign process to accommodate heavy traffic. The project is expected to be completed by August 2025.

The department has, over time, been undertaking road upgrades and rehabilitation projects in line with the Provincial Government’s commitment to delivering a world-class road infrastructure that is modern, efficient, and promotes economic growth, social cohesion, and inclusivity
