Installation & traffic control in Centurion: local notes

On dolomite, many engineers prefer shallow, wide footings and good drainage so no water collects around posts or retractable pits. Ask the installer whether the municipality's dolomite rules apply to your stand. Speed humps are common inside estates, but on public roads the city usually decides after a request. Road works on the N1 and N14 interchanges bring jersey barriers and cones in long runs.

Centurion: the properties, the ground and the installers

Much of Centurion stands on dolomite, and sinkholes in Lyttelton, Eldoraigne and along the N1 corridor are part of local memory. For bollards that changes the conversation: deep holes, leaking water and heavy loads all need thought, and some sites ask for a shallow footing or a surface fixing rather than a long hole. Above ground the work is mostly residential and commercial. Security estates in Midstream and Irene want boom gates, speed humps and lit bollards on long internal roads, while office parks in Highveld and around the Gautrain station need parking posts and walkway protection. Light industrial yards in Hennopspark, Sunderland Ridge and Lyttelton hold fabricators and installers within a few minutes of the N1, N14 and R21.

Typical guardrails requests in the area come from:

  • Estates, complexes and body corporates: rails along an estate road beside a dam or embankment
  • Warehouses, factories and depots: rails in a loading area protecting pipes, tanks and walls from trucks
  • Offices, hotels and car parks: a guardrail protecting a building wall from cars on a sloping car park
