Introduction Transport overview Transport Strategic Thrusts Public transport corridors Conclusion
2
City is required to develop ITP by NLTA Act 5 of 2009 GDS 2040 and National Development Plan First ITP developed in 2003 served over 10years ITP 2003-2008 proposed SPTN later BRT network Currently under review in four components First component is the SITPF was adopted by Mayoral
Committee in September 2013 SITPF sets out the vision, goals and strategies to meet
objectives of GDS 2040 The SITPF proposes strategic thrusts and high level PT
corridors to guide TOD

Modal split: 2002GHTS
53% car trips
47% public transport trips
Trips to work: 2011 GCRO QoL survey
42% used cars to work
Poor public transport leads to more car use despite high levels of congestion
Congestion increased travel times by 79% in the morning peak- Tom Tom Congestion Index 2012 -
2011 survey estimated that 78% of 3.8 million drivers on Joburg roads are stuck in severe traffic jam daily
Carbon emissions: 56% is contribution of
Joburg to national carbon emissions
1: Restructure and integrate the city
2: Improve and expand provision of quality public transport and use of non-
motorised transport
3: Maintain, improve, extend and integrate transport infrastructure
4: Support economic growth through improving freight mobility
5: Manage congestion, travel demand and parking
6: Actively engage citizenry in improving the transport system
7: Transform the transport sector and encourage new, efficient and profitable
transport enterprises and employment creation
8: Plan and regulate the transport system
9: Resource and finance the transport plan
5
Defined the public transport corridors “Corridors of Freedom”
Identify and map the whole network and
assign the most appropriate mode for the demand.
Implement over time identified public
transport networks with the next five year focus on the Rea Vaya 1B and 1C corridors
Develop integrated transport hubs and improve the surrounding public environment, in particular the pedestrian and cycling environment
Incentivise spatial restructuring including through the way in which public transport fares are structured
SSHUP proposed corridors

WHAT CAN WE EXPECT IN 2040?
The city population is expected to increase from 4.43 million in 2011 to 6.57 million in 2040.
Density per km2 will increase from 2 698 (2011) to 3 996.
Significant increases in employment by 2040 especially in Lanseria (160 000) Modderfontein(132 000) Lion Park (65 000) Athol, Rosebank & Parktown North,
Sandton (60 000 each) Midrand Strip (46 000) Buccleuch (45 000) Parkmore, Houghton Estate, Jhb CBD,
Limbro park, Islamic Institute (30 000 – 45 000 each)
Halfway Gardens, Randburg CBD, Austin View, Troyeville, Cosmo, Roodepoort, Benrose, Midrand-Noordwyk, Fordsburg (15 000 – 30 000 each)
WHAT WILL THIS MEAN FOR TRANSPORT DEMAND
If we assume:
Density and TOD reduces average trip length to 19km.
65% public transport due to huge new developments on Rea Vaya corridors (1A, B and C)
Then the public transport morning peak hour demand is predicted to double from 298 000 trips in 2010 to 617 000 trips in 2040
And if these trips are assigned to the transport network, the next pages set out proposed new services for 2040

STRATEGY
The next step in the ITP process is to develop an Integrated Transport Network Plan to determine: the best mode for the routes the public transport, NMT and freight
routes the City will be investing in; A 10-year sequenced plan indicating
funding requirements.
Such a plan will be guided by: the strategies set out in this document, international best practice on what is the
correct mode for the level of demand the specific routes, travel speed, image for
the city, attractiveness to car users, passenger preference, comfort and the convenience of a particular mode.
GUIDING PRINCIPLES
For public transport 15 or 18-seater minibus: one-way
passenger volumes of less than 800 passengers/day.
Standard bus: Between 800 and 20 000 one way passengers/day.
Articulated bus: Between 20 000 and 40 000 one-way passengers/day.
Rail: Above 40 000 one-way passengers/day
For walking and cycling:
Distances of 500 m to 1 km as representing a fair walking distance
Reasonable trip times are 30 minutes to jobs/school and 10 to 15 minutes for trips to shops or services
