AN UNDERSTANDING OF THE CORE THEORIES FOR PASSENGER AND RAIL
FRIEGHT SERVICES.
National Passenger Rail Plan objective was to arrest the decline in passenger rail
services and secure a sustainable passenger rail services. The approach was to
concentrate the majority of available resources on high intensity „Priority Rail
Corridors‟. The determination of these corridors is based on where rail is able to
perform to its strength as a high capacity people mover. Other routes will be retained
but given lower priority until such time as the business prospects of the industry
improve (DOT, 2005). The main benefit of the priority corridors strategy is to offer the
only sustainable option to restore value for money for Government‟s investment in
passenger rail transport. In the medium to long term the National Rail Plan holds out
the prospect of increased use of the rail network on the priority corridors with more
effective, regionally based monitoring of finances and operational performance
(SARCC, 2006).
National Passenger Rail Plan By 2004 the rail business in South Africa was facing
serious challenges such as peak hour services operating at crush loading, network
utilization being below capacity due to rolling stock unavailability. Government and
the rail commuter business were in dire need of a national plan to align national
policies, travel needs and business requirements, with implementation plans, for the
rail commuter business. The Department of Transport started the process of the
National Passenger Rail Plan known as the Rail Plan. The methodology applied in
the Rail Plan process was to examine the current role of commuter rail transport
within the wider travel demand trends in South Africa and, to analyse and quantify
the financial, operational and technical dynamics of the industry (DOT, 2005). The
process of the Rail Plan was divided into two phases. The first phase focused on
developing the overall strategy for the passenger rail sector and the preparation of
regional rail plans for a focused new strategic direction. During the second phase the
department focused on consultation with provinces and metropolitan authorities in
the finalisation of regional plans. More emphasis was to quantify the specific
infrastructural and rolling stock interventions required to restore the levels of service
in regional corridors (SARCC, 2006).
At a strategic level the implementation of the plan targeted both operational and
infrastructure improvements in priority corridors. In the Tshwane region the
interventions on the Mabopane - Pretoria Central corridor included station upgrade in
Pretoria North, replacement of electrical equipment‟s such as traction transformers.
Mamelodi - Pretoria Central corridor interventions included platform extensions at
Mamelodi stations and track upgrade and track doubling on the corridor. Wits region
interventions focused on Soweto - Johannesburg and Naledi - New Canada
corridors. The interventions include signal systems upgrades, station upgrades,
