Benoni notes on installation & traffic control

Ground near the lakes and vleis is often soft clay that holds water, so posts there need wider footings and some drainage gravel, and a shallow hole will lean after a few summers. Clubs and parks order chain and post barriers to keep cars off grass. Gravel roads on the holdings use guardrail at culverts, and complexes ask for speed humps on internal roads.

Sites and streets in Benoni

Benoni is the East Rand's lake town. Parks and slipways around its lakes, sports clubs and lakeside homes in Lakefield and Farrarmere make it one of the few places in Gauteng where timber bollards, chain and post and lit paths are asked for as often as steel. Behind that, Northmead's busy shopping streets and the old Benoni CBD want sidewalk and shopfront posts, and Rynfield's complexes want boom gates and humps. The agricultural holdings around Putfontein and Benoni North have stables, nurseries and small factories that need farm gate booms and tough steel posts. Industry sits in Benoni South and Apex, where fabricators and gate installers work, and Daveyton's busy routes add municipal work.

Who asks for guardrails around Benoni, most often first:

  • Homeowners: a short rail along a steep driveway above a drop on a smallholding
  • Estates, complexes and body corporates: rails along an estate road beside a dam or embankment
  • Municipalities and public spaces: guardrails on a municipal road at a bridge or sharp bend
