(GIBB PTY LTD) were appointed by the South African National Roads Agency SOC Ltd (SANRAL) for the Consulting Engineering Services for the upgrading of the National Route R37 section A from R518 (km40.0) to Bogalatladi (km67.0). The project falls within the Lepelle-Nkumpi Local Municipality. The road is a single carriageway surfaced road of approximately 27km in length.

The aim of this project is to relieve traffic congestion to acceptable levels of service, improve overall road safety and propose adequate pavement capacity for the design period of 20 years. The road is a single carriageway surfaced road of approximately 27km in length located between Lebowakgomo and Burgersfort.

The proposed scope of works for the upgrading will comprise of the following:

·        Widening of the R37

·        Lengthening the culverts and bridge under R37

·        Improving the existing pavement structure

A Road Safety Audit is therefore required to evaluate the layout of the future road from a safety point of view.

Firms with road safety and traffic engineering experience are therefore invited to submit a quote to undertake an independent Road Safety Audit. A clarification meeting will not be held, but it is essential that prospective tenderers familiarise themselves with the site.
