The construction of a dam across the Great Letaba River, near Tzaneen in the North Eastern Transvaal required the re-routing of the local road network. The Transvaal Provincial Authority asked our Johannesburg office to design the bridges.
In our first article of this issue we explore the work involved in this project.
