5.6. KwaDukuza Infrastructure andServicesKwaDukuza accommodates a basic transportation networkconsisting of the N2, the R102, the R74, the R614 and aseries of local access roads, in particular in the coastaland central zone linkages in the west and to the westernmunicipalities are more limited. The North Coast Rail extendsthrough the length of the municipality always in proximityof the R102 providing an important complementary service.Besides some private airfields, there is no existinginfrastructure. The ILembe SDF suggests inter alia thatKwaDukuza as the local and district node should consider theestablishment of an appropriate airfield at KwaDukuza Town.The King Shaka Airport just south of KwaDukuza has had asignificant impact on the development of the municipality.The present provision of services such as water and electricitysupply, sanitation etc appears mostly adequate in the centraland eastern parts of the municipality, this, will howeverprovide constraints for the development in the near future. Inoverall terms the development implications of the local statusquo analysis suggests that:• As in most municipalities there exists a greatneed for additional appropriate accommodationand economic development, future residentialdevelopment needs to be more structuredand relate on the one hand to the creation ofemployment opportunities while on the otherhand ensuring the maintenance of a functionaland attractive natural environment• The coastal and riverine environments requirea greater level of sensitive approach andprotection, both for the retention of a goodhuman environment, a functional agriculturalsector as well as an increased tourism andrecreation development.• While the present agricultural development isat present the most significant contributor tothe economic development of the municipality,pressures for other development are likely toreduce its significance in the future. Pressure onland at present used for agricultural activities,mostly in the form of sugar cane farming, maytherefore require in future a more efficient landutilization as well as a greater diversification.• A significant number of land claims in a centralband of the municipality may have a delayingimplication on development in this region.• In overall terms, KwaDukuza has greatdevelopment opportunities through its locationand contents, in particular if it is possible tomanage development pressures and balancedevelopment better throughout the area andif the municipality develops an appropriatecapacity level for the management andpromotion of appropriate development.5.7. Development Implications forKwaDukuza• King Shaka Airport and Dube Tradeport• Although located outside of the municipality,the close proximity of the King Shaka Airportand related trade port has provided significantdevelopment opportunities for KwaDukuza.• The strategic objectives for KwaDukuza includeamong other things:• The potential for tapping into the growing tourismindustry, driving tourism growth through access tointernational flights and accommodating increasedpassenger demand• The potential for tapping into the increasinggrowth and sophistication of the Global Logisticsmarket, creating air freight logistical efficienciesand stimulating growth in competitiveness inglobal supply chains.• Supporting high value manufacturing, value addedlogistics and export perishables production withICT support and co-ordinated government servicesin one place.• Attracting a wide range of investors, operators,users and tenants, with world class facilities.• Socio-economic benefits for KwaDukuza couldinclude growing employment, increasingempowerment, alleviating poverty and providingbroad access to infrastructure.• The southern part of the KwaDukuza, the alreadyburgeoning Ballito and environs, is likely to gainadded development impetus as an establishedhigh income residential area with high endservices, industrial areas, etc. The area is likely toexperience more development pressures in thefuture which needs to managed appropriately andbalanced throughout the municipality.5.8. Development Constraints forKwaDukuza• The location and condition of the KwaDukuzaMunicipality suggests that physical developmentconstraints are limited, including:• Environmentally sensitive coastal strip which, althoughunder substantial pressure for recreational usage andaccommodation, in particular in the south, needs to bebetter protected and managed, Better protection andmanagement of the river, lagoon and wetland systemsto maintain and improve appropriate environmentalfunctionality and living conditions,• Present relatively unstructured housing development interms of location and integration into necessary socialand economic support systems,• Limitations in terms of carrying capacity of identifiedriver catchment areas,• The existence of numerous land claims in the centralportions of the municipality, although it is agreed thatthis may primarily be an issue of development phasing,40KwaDukuza Municipality Integrated Development Plan - 2011/16
• The existence of poorer and less developedcommunities in the municipalities to the west andnorth,• Present limitations in the provision of appropriatephysical and social support services to peripheralcommunities,5.9. Development TrendsPresent development trends are clear and strong andinclude:• Development pressures in the south of themunicipality, in particular the Ballito region,ranging from business and commercialdevelopment to residential and increasedtourism related activities; this has increaseddue to the development of the King ShakaInternational Airport (KSIA) and the DubeTradeport (DTP).• Development pressures on the coastal strip,again in particular in the south, primarilyfor recreational and various forms of upmarket residential development, again thishas increased due to the development of theKSIA and DTP• Pressure on land presently under agriculturalusage, this is a common feature surroundingurban and easily accessible locations andneeds to be dealt with in the context of theimportance of the agricultural sector in theeconomy of the municipality,• Pressure for providing additional housingaccommodation for middle and low incomehouseholds,• Increase in the prevalence and importanceof the informal economy.5.10. Land Use Management ContextThe KwaDukuza Municipality is at an advanced stagein the preparation of its’ Land Use ManagementScheme (LUMS). The KwaDukuza LUMS will takeguidance of the SDF further in terms of establishinga control and management tool of the land use anddevelopment of the municipality. In essence the LUMSwill not only provide a basis for the implementationof the strategic intentions of the SDF, but it will alsoprovide a framework for managing development andthe translation of land uses into zones.Chapter 55.11. Development Scenarios for KwaDukuza MunicipalityThe following series of maps attempts to build up the SDF in a series of functional steps. They also include a briefdescription of the various urban clusters within the municipality. The complete SDF is available on the KwaDukuzawebsite:http://www.kwadukuza.gov.za/docs/SDF%20-%201.pdfBALLITO / COMPENSATION NODEThis is the most Southerly Node ofKwaDukuza Municipality. It seeksto exploit opportunities offered byits close proximity to the eThekwiniMunicipality and the Dube Tradeport(King Shaka International)The KwaDukuza SDF seeks to find abalance between reasonable andrealistic development opportunitiesoffered by this node with developmentneeds and opportunities ofother parts of the Municipality.41
