Transport Minister Barbara Creecy has officially unveiled a groundbreaking Request for Information (RFI), aimed at transforming the country\u2019s struggling rail and port infrastructure through strategic partnerships with the private sector.<\/p>\n

\u201cToday, I am launching an online request for information to develop an enabling environment for Private Sector Participation (PSP) and enhance investment in rail and port infrastructure and operations,\u201d Creecy said during a media briefing on Sunday.<\/p>\n

The Minister described this decision as a significant step in government\u2019s efforts to partner with the private sector, ensuring that the country\u2019s rail network and ports reclaim their crucial role in enhancing trade and driving economic growth.<\/p>\n

Creecy highlighted the urgent need for intervention, citing significant challenges, including infrastructure deterioration, vandalism, theft, underinvestment, and operational inefficiencies that have hindered economic growth.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe limited availability of State resources to fund infrastructure development and address backlogs has intensified these challenges, severely restricting the ability of State-Owned Entities (SOEs) to fulfill their critical mandates.,\u201d she explained.<\/p>\n

The Minister told journalists that Transnet and government have received many \u201cunsolicited\u201c proposals from the private sector offering investment skills and expertise to support the rehabilitation and reform of our struggling rail and port systems.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis overwhelming interest has made it clear to the department and Transnet that we must engage in broad and inclusive market research before issuing requests for proposals in August this year.\u201d<\/p>\n

However, according to the Minister, these processes are not formal procurement methods, but rather a mechanism to gather and analyse information from the market.<\/p>\n

She stated that the government recognises the importance of understanding the freight logistics landscape from the perspective of interested and affected parties.<\/p>\n

The Minister believes that this will ensure that solutions are both effective and sustainable during this initial phase of PSP.<\/p>\n

The RFI targets key mineral export routes, include the corridor from Northern Cape to Saldanha for iron ore and manganese exports, as well as the routes from Limpopo and Mpumalanga to Richards Bay for coal and chrome exports.<\/p>\n

In addition, there is an intermodal supply chain project that focuses on the container and automotive sectors.<\/p>\n

This project encompasses the port, container, and automotive port terminals, as well as back-of-port arrangements and railway and inland terminals.<\/p>\n

It will also address the corridors connecting Gauteng and KwaZulu-Natal (Durban), Gauteng and Eastern Cape (East London, Port Elizabeth and Ngqura), and Gauteng and Western Cape (Cape Town).<\/p>\n

\u201cThe RFI represents a pivotal step forward in our shared commitment to building a 21st-century transport system that goes beyond mobility to strengthen industrial competitiveness, deepen regional integration, and drive inclusive economic growth.\u201d<\/p>\n

Creecy believes this move will help the department express challenges in a structured and coherent manner, clearly defining their scope, context, and impact to guide the development of focused, strategic, and sustainable solutions.<\/p>\n

Support for new and emerging players<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Creecy said the State has committed to principles of job retention, State asset ownership, localisation, and Broad-Based Black Economic Empowerment (BBBEE) and gender equality, by providing strong support to new and emerging players in the rail and port sectors.<\/p>\n

A dedicated PSP unit, to be hosted by the Development Bank of South Africa, will oversee the initiative.<\/p>\n

The eight-week online consultation process, running from 24 March to 9 May 2025, aims to gather comprehensive market insights before issuing formal proposals in August.<\/p>\n

Stakeholders are encouraged to participate through the department\u2019s website or dedicated online portal at\u00a0www.psp-rfi.co.za<\/a>, with all submitted information to be treated confidentially.<\/p>\n

\u201cI encourage all Interested and affected parties to actively engage in this RFI process, contributing to the PSP unit\u2019s efforts in shaping the potential PSP programme of projects and designing future bid packages for procurement,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n

Government plans to release a second RFI focusing on passenger rail initiatives in May this year. \u2013\u00a0SAnews.gov.za<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
