Six local areas
Separated from one another by major
topographical features and major barriers such
as river valleys and main roads.
Each local area has its own character and
opportunities for development and need to be
planned and managed accordingly.
The planning and management of these areas
is aimed at turning these functional districts into
local activity systems which provide a range of
facilities, opportunities and services required by
local residents.
Two of the local planning areas: Inanda Damand Zwelibomvu are entirely traditional authority
areas, while Cato Ridge and Mpumalanga have
some traditional authority land within its
boundaries.

Socio- Economic Informants
CURRENT POPULATION TRENDS
High population in rural areas,
disconnected from Metroopportunities
High risk generated by informal
settlements being in vulnerablelocations, pressure on natural
environment.
High levels of unemployment, low
levels of skills and few existing
employment opportunities

Transport Informants CURRENT TRANSPORTATION TRENDSAND PROPOSALS
N3/M13/R103 provide main east/westlinkages.Access is constrained by topographyresults in lack of alternatives.Main Durban/Johannesburg rail line in thesouth, affected by steep gradients, axleloading and tunnel clearance.
Rail from Western Suburbs to Cato Ridgeused mostly for tourism.N3 highly pressured system due to lack ofalternates. Diminishing capacity to servethe metropolitan area from an economic
point of view.N3 Toll offers challenges.
Poor linkages results in inefficient andinconvenient and costly travel patterns.Providing public transport service isconstrained by topographyHigh levels of congestion in WesternSuburbs due to increased developments

Proposed Movement and Development Corridors
PROPOSED CORRIDOR DEVELOPMENT
Industrial Corridor
Eddie Hagen Drive has the potential to be developedas an industrial corridor providing much neededeconomic opportunities for the rural hinterland.
Rural CorridorsSome routes in the rural areas which link rural nodes
together have the potential to be developed as ruralcorridors that support rural activities including artsand crafts and informal trade.
Agriculture CorridorsThis section of the MR385 is predominantly focused onagriculture as the main economic activity. This use
should be maintained, and supported in the short
term.
Urban Service CorridorsMR385 and Old Main Road have the potential to bedeveloped as urban services corridors supporting
mixed use urban development.

Proposed Metro Housing Projects
Large range of existing lifestyle choice(agriculture, suburban)
Significant (approx 8500) middle income
cluster housing units developed in recentyears.
New market trend for apartment blocks/
affordable units in well located spaces along
main roads.
57 000 Metro Housing units proposed for
Outer & Inner West UMzinyathi, Fredville

Lack of social, commercial and community
facilities, exacerbated by lack of

Development Trends and Spatial Challenges in the Outer West
50%) of the study area is covered by traditional
authorities50%) of the study area is covered by criticalenvironmental assets and servicesUnder performing agricultural areas resulting inpressure for land use change and impacts on foodsecurityLow densities and fragmented settlement pattern
with low thresholds for efficient service deliveryLack of space for service industry in the broaderOuter West area has led to inappropriatedevelopments along the R103 which negativelyimpact on the tourism potential of this routeSteady middle to high income housing demand inWestern Suburbs
Steady office and retail demand in Western
Suburbs.Pressure for conversion of agricultural landAdhoc densification resulting in increased stormwater flows.Poor linkages to areas of opportunity.Increased industrial land demandIncreased pressure on road network
Increased pressure on infrastructure capacity inWestern Suburbs and Cato Ridge.
