policies to improve public transport.
The National Transport Master Plan, NATMAP, 2050 is our comprehensive, multimodal, integrated plan which anchors a sustainable framework for implementing transport while providing infrastructure and services.

and village economies.
In the state of the province address earlier this year, we reported, among others that through the Department of Public Works, Roads and Transport we made a remarkable progress towards the provision of an efficient, competitive and responsive economic infrastructure network.
Our government is aware of the issues between our communities and the trucking industry. We urge our communities to exercise
alone. We once more wish to convey our heartfelt condolences to the families of the victims. We agree with Transport Minister Mbalula that one death on our roads is one too many.
