The first two adjacent road construction packages for the Mtentu and Msikaba bridges will be put out to tender in November. Work on the former started in January 2018 but stalled because of a contract dispute while work on the latter is still in its early stages. SANRAL has not yet received permission from National Treasury to negotiate with previously unsuccessful bidders for the Mtentu bridge, but that talks will start as soon as it is granted to allow the project to be finalised.
