providing for general aviation freight and passenger charter facilities as w ell as private operations. (b) Access to Airports/Airfields Access to the tw o Sedibeng airports and any future airports by all modes of transport needs to be considered. The transport modes to be considered are private and public transport using the road system, as w ell as rail. Road System: Access to all the airfields w ill remain by road using either private or public transport (bus/taxi), including freight. Provision of direct road access to the freeway system should only be considered if the airports become commercially active, and should form part of the future airports strategy. Rail System - AerovaalAirport: A Prasa/Metrorail main line betw een Vereeninging and Johannesburg is situated approximately 4,5 km w est of the airfield, w ith the nearest station at Kookrus (approximately 4,0 km) in Meyerton South. Local lines connected to this main line serves the Meydustria industrial area, the closest of w hich terminates approximately 2,0 km from the airfield. Connection betw een the airfield and the main Vereeniging/Johannesburg line may be possible, but w ill require further study. Rail System - Heidelberg Airport: A Prasa/Metrorail main line betw een Heidelberg and Johannesburg is situated approximately 1,8 km north- w est of the airfield, w ith the nearest station of Heidelberg (approximately 1,3 km) directly linked to the airfield over the N3 freew ay. No other local lines exist in the area. Connection betw een the airfield and this line may be possible, but w ill require further study. (c) Environmental Issues The main environmental issue affecting airports is noise pollution. This may prohibit further development and associated air traffic increase, which could lead to closure or relocation. Secondary factors are storm w ater and ground w ater pollution by fuel spillage and biodiversity loss due to expansion. Establishment of new airfields requires exhaustive environmental study and consultation w ith interested and affected parties. Should there be sympathy for developing a strategy of consolidation, it could be a long process, w hich w ill be closely linked to environmental impact. 10.4 Outputs SDM w ill support and cooperate w ith future studies to investigate the commercial and/or private development of the AerovaalAirport located in Heidelberg and other local airports, including new airports.These studies w ill ideally be undertaken in conjunction w ith the EMM’s proposed study to establish industry preparedness for the consolidation of existing general aviation facilities in the province and to find suitable sites for general aviation airfields in Gauteng. SDM w ill ensure adequate road access to exiting airports/airfields. SDM w ill investigate opportunities to enter into a public-private-partnership for the development and operation of airfields in Sedibeng. SDM DITP, 2008 to 2013 154 31 Aug 2010
11 FREIGHT TRANSPORT 11.1 Background 11.1.1 General As the major regulators and providers of the freight transport infrastructure, the national and provincial departments of transport have responsibilities in terms of the NLTTA and the associated NLTSF, as w ell as the administration of the National Road Traffic Act, to incorporate freight transport movements into Transport Plans. Although this section w as repealed, it is still relevant for the GautengProvince. Clauses 18(3) and 18(6) of the NLTTA respectively require that: • Transport plans must be developed so as to enhance the effective functioning of cities through integrated planning of transport operators, including freight movements. • The MEC must ensure co-ordination of the planning process of all planning authorities under the jurisdiction of the province and must ensure that all plans address freight movements. Follow ing on from the development and publication of the National Freight Logistics Strategy (NFLS) by the DoT, GPTRW embarked on the development of a Freight Transport Implementation Strategy for Gauteng(2009) w ithin the framew ork provided by the NFLS.Province recognised the need to incorporate freight transportation planning into the province’s transportation planning process. Some w ork already undertaken includes: • the establishment of a freight transport databank in conjunction w ith the DoT; • study on the freight corridors in Gauteng; • study on rail freight in Gauteng; • study on air freight in Gauteng; and • commencing preparatory w ork on establishing a freight transport framew ork for Gauteng. The development of a Freight Transport Implementation Strategy for Gautengw as guided bythe follow ing principles: • Strong emphasis on integration, co-ordination and good governance in developing and implementing the strategy; • Complement the National Freight Logistics Master Plan; • Support national economic, industrial, social and sustainable development objectives; • Support regional and local economic development (LED) objectives; • Be aligned w ith IDPs, ITPs, metropolitan and regional development and planning framew orks including corridor densification initiatives; • Serve as a tool to guide decisions on appropriate levels of investment that have a positive impact on the freight transport and logistic system; • Facilitate programmes and initiatives that lead to a closer and more strategic working relationship betw een Government and the freight logistics industry; SDM DITP, 2008 to 2013 155 31 Aug 2010
