DESCRIPTION This project aimed to upgrade and repair the National route N4: a toll road and the major artery linking Gauteng with the east coast of South Africa and the Mozambique border. It forms the South African section of the Trans-Kalahari Corridor linking the east and west coasts of Southern Africa. As the economic hub of South Africa, Gauteng is the smallest province, but has over 12 million inhabitants and plays an important role in the financial, manufacturing, transport, technology, and telecommunications sectors of the country. Improving the roadways was essential. Part of this road is concrete and therefore took more skill than the norm.
