integrated mobility access (IRMA) project
9 February 2006
Transport Minister Jeff Radebe will launch an R30m integrated rural mobility
and access (IRMA) project at the greater Tubatse Local Municipality in
Sekhukhune, Limpopo, on Saturday. The IRMA projects will focus on delivering
three key outputs namely:
* To strengthen passenger transport services
* To improve the use of non-motorised transportation systems through the
promotion of the use of animal drawn carts, bicycles and other low technology
transport solutions such as paths and river crossing
* To increase an environment conducive for the development and strengthening of
rural freight and logistical support
In line with the Department of Transport policy imperatives in the transport
system, the Department is aiming at a broader programme of delivery, which
shall ensure better alignment of implementation processes and systems
development, to improve both access to the poor and quality of lives.
Details of the launch are as follows:
