6. Rail Development Plans Gauteng: Freight Ring Concept Gauteng is at the centre of most regional and port connections in Southern Africa Flows are complex and there are no clear bypass routes A freight ring can potentially - –Facilitate uninterrupted flow of freight –Provide a key link between Hubs and Terminals –Provide dedicated freight routes segregated from congested PRASA routes. –Set a logical separation of electrification between 3kV DC and 25kV AC.

8. Rail Development Plans Gauteng Freight Ring Concept The eventual freight ring will not be closed on the western side because no feasible route was found. Instead, a bypass further west connecting Rustenburg, Swartruggens, Lichtenburg and Mafikeng is proposed but only if volumes justify the investment. Source: Transnet Group Planning
