4 SIP 2: Durban-Free State-Gauteng Logistics & Industrial Corridor Improve logistics and economic integration between the main economic centres and raise the efficiency of the export operations Strengthen the logistics and transport corridor between SA s main industrial hubs; Improve access to Durban s export and import facilities, Raise efficiency along the corridor; Integrate the Free State Industrial Strategy activities into the corridor; and Integrate the currently disconnected industrial and logistics activities as well as marganisalised rural production centers surrounding the corridor that are currently isolated from the main logistics system. Project Location KZN- Free State & Gauteng SIP2 Launch Presentation 18 June

5 The Gauteng-Free State-Durban Corridor is the most important economic corridor in the country Total freight on the South African surface is expected to increase from 761mt to 1 970mt. Flows through the port system will increase from 239mt to 565mt and cross-border traffic from 31mt to 70mt Source: Transnet Freight Demand Model,

6 SIP2: Key Objectives Improve the efficiency and effectiveness of the corridor; Create capacity ahead of demand; Create better access to the corridor; and Facilitate regional trade; Align stakeholders behind a common plan for the corridor; Accelerate and synchronise infrastructure rollout; and Optimise industrial capability building, skills development and job creation. 6

33 National Freight System Context Freight system challenges Road - Rail market share is imbalanced and leads to high costs, high carbon intensity and vulnerability to the international oil price. Requirements for long term competitiveness A large scale modal shift from road to rail to address costs, congestion and carbon emissions. A low carbon, energy efficient freight system that will reduce vulnerability to the volatile oil prices and support South Africa s long-term trade competitiveness and sustainability. Global and regional maritime connectivity is poor. Consolidation in the regional shipping network and the creation of international hub ports. Increased maritime connectivity between regional ports. The regional freight system is weakly integrated and displays poor performance. A high performing core transport network in the region that will enable growth in intra-regional trade. Demand for transport infrastructure across all modes will rise significantly based on forecast freight demand. A freight logistics system that creates capacity ahead of demand, while ensuring that costs to users remain competitive. There is a shortage of skills across most areas of the freight system. Supplier industries for all transport modes are underdeveloped. Identification of priority and scarce skills, and targeted skills development. The State to retain strategic control of the network in order to lead and guide infrastructure investment and development of the supplier industry. 33

34 ethekwini Freight Vision Freight & Logistics Vision for ethekwini By 2030, ethekwini will be the freight and logistics gateway into Southern Africa, providing a world-class freight system and infrastructure with seamless movements modes, origins and destinations of freight. Freight activities will be key in supporting ethekwini's industrialisation, while freight movements and operations will be efficient, cost effective and minimise the negative impact on residents and commuters.

36 The Port of Durban The Port of Durban is the gateway for more than 60% of the country s imports and exports and the value of freight handled is 60% more than the GDP of KZN The port and port related businesses employ in excess of 50,000 people The port is also a key anchor for several industries, example the petrochemical industry More than 60% of the ethekwini economy is heavily reliant on freight transport Forecasts of freight demand indicate the need for significant expansion of port capacity The expansion of port capacity musty be supported by appropriate back of port infrastructure including roads, cargo processing facilities, storage areas, truck stops, etc Following several years of joint planning, a portfolio of projects was developed to meet future capacity requirements and improve the efficiency and effectiveness of the port and the corridor to Gauteng 36
