Zandspruit and Surrounding Areas Transport Master Plan and Implementation Plan

Public participation is an important component in the development of the Transport Master Plan and in October and November 2021 during the first phase of the project a series of stakeholder workshops were conducted to identify issues and concerns for the status quo assessment.

The study has now moved into the second phase which involves the development of concepts and solutions to address the problems identified in the status quo assessment, together with scenario planning and modelling to test these solutions. This phase of the study includes another round of stakeholder engagement in the form of ideation workshops with key stakeholder groups and the community and we would therefore like to invite community members and key stakeholders within the study area to attend meetings that have been scheduled as follows:

1. Zandspruit Community Ideation Workshop

Date: Saturday 3 September 2022

Time: 10h30 to 12h30

Venue: Cosmo City Multi-Purpose Centre – Main Hall

2. Cosmo City and Malibongwe Ridge Community Ideation Workshop

Date: Saturday 3 September 2022

Time: 14h00 to 16h00

Venue: Cosmo City Multi-Purpose Centre – Main Hall

3. North Riding Agricultural Holdings, Jackal Creek Golf Estate, Olievenhoutpoort, Kevin Ridge, Sonnedal AH and Sundowner Ext 7 Community:

North Riding AH Ideation Community Workshop

Date: Monday 29 August 2022

Time: 18h30 to 20h30

Venue: MS Teams Online (Please contact our office on email at ZandspruitTMP@nma.org.za to register your interest in attending this meeting and we will send you the MS Teams link for the meeting)

The purpose of these meetings is to present a broad overview of the findings of the status quo assessment together with proposed ideas for solutions to the key transport and land use problems that were identified. We would like your comments on these concepts and to hear any other ideas that you may have to improve the transport system in the study area.

The input from these meetings will then be used in the preparation of a draft Transport Master Plan and Implementation Plan which will be made available for public comment during October and November later this year.
