Installation & traffic control in Polokwane: local notes
Granite boulders sit under the soil in parts of town, so footings sometimes need a rock drill or a redesigned base. Wayleaves for sidewalk and road reserve work go through the Polokwane municipality. Speed humps near schools in Seshego and Mankweng are a frequent request. Guardrails at truck stops and cones and jersey barriers for N1 works are a big share of the traffic control trade here.
Sites and streets in Polokwane
Trucks heading for Beitbridge on the N1 run right past Polokwane, and that freight corridor explains much of its traffic control work. Truck stops, fuel depots, warehouses and transport yards in Ladanna and along the N1 want heavy posts, boom gates and guardrails, while the city itself is the shopping and government hub for most of Limpopo. Big malls, the CBD with its taxi ranks, provincial departments, hospitals and the university at Mankweng all ask for bollards, speed humps and controlled parking. Bendor and Flora Park have complexes and estates with gatehouses. Precast yards and fabricators are mostly in Ladanna and the industrial areas, and Pretoria is about 270 km south.
Typical guardrails requests in the area come from:
- Shops, malls and petrol stations: rails along the edge of a shopping centre car park above a slope
- Municipalities and public spaces: guardrails on a municipal road at a bridge or sharp bend
- Estates, complexes and body corporates: rails along an estate road beside a dam or embankment
