M4, N2 bridge repair contracts to be awarded soon – Sanral
The South African National Roads Agency Limited (Sanral) will award the contracts for the rehabilitation of the M4 Uthongathi bridge and N2 Umhlali River bridge soon.
Construction on the Umhlali River bridge is expected to take four months and on construction on the Uthongathi bridge two months.
“Owing to recent failures, Sanral has been requested to assist the KwaZulu-Natal Department of Transport with capacity and we have already made repairs on the northbound carriageway [of the M4] and resuming the repairs on the southbound direction, if weather permits.
“However, these are only holding measures while awaiting the full project capital expenditure for more permanent repairs, which will resume early next year,” Sanral Eastern region project manager Trevor Zumani says.
“The tender evaluations were completed in December, and we have submitted the memo to the bid adjudication committee for approval. The committee has informed us that the awards are waiting for proactive assurance before they can be finalised. The award may only take place early in the new year,” he says.
