What to know locally in Potchefstroom
Big old trees have roots under many pavements, so ask the installer to plan the footing around them and to check with the municipality before digging on the verge. Speed humps near schools and campus routes are popular but need JB Marks municipality approval on public roads. Event cones and barriers are hired for sports days, graduations and the start of each academic year.
Potchefstroom: the properties, the ground and the installers
Students, oak trees and old streets give Potchefstroom a different set of problems from the mining towns nearby. A large university campus, schools, colleges and student housing mean thousands of pedestrians crossing roads near Tom Street and the campus edges, so speed humps, chain and post barriers, and posts that keep cars off lawns and footpaths are common requests. The older town centre has heritage buildings where decorative posts suit better than yellow steel. A military base, agricultural research and a light industrial area add access control jobs. Baillie Park and Van der Hoff Park have complexes with boom gates. Johannesburg is about 120 km up the N12 for specialist units.
The requests we see from Potchefstroom usually come from:
- Schools, hospitals and campuses: water-filled barriers guiding traffic at a stadium or campus event
- Estates, complexes and body corporates: barriers closing an unused entrance or a road during repairs
- Municipalities and public spaces: barriers closing a street to cars or protecting a work zone
