Precast posts and domes are common at shopping centres in the CBD and Safari Gardens, and timber posts with reflectors suit lodges and guest houses toward Pilanesberg and the Magaliesberg. Stainless posts appear mostly at newer offices, where 304 is plenty this far from the sea.
Who protects what in Rustenburg
Platinum mining has made Rustenburg a town of shafts, smelters, contractor yards and fast-growing housing, and the bollard requests follow that pattern. Mines and processing plants around Marikana, Kroondal and Mooinooi need steel posts at workshops, fuel points and pedestrian routes, while the N4 Platinum Highway and the roads to Pilanesberg carry heavy trucks and tour coaches. The CBD, Cashan and Safari Gardens have shopping centres, filling stations and offices dealing with smash and grabs and careless parking. The black turf clay that covers much of the valley is the main technical issue, because it swells when wet and cracks when dry. Pretoria is about 110 km away for rated or specialist units.
