Proclaimed Roads Proclamation means that a specific authority of government takes

legal ownership and responsibility for the maintenance and development of that particular road network.

Unproclaimed Roads When a road is unproclaimed no roads authority among the spheres

of our government takes responsibility for its upkeep, even for minimal maintenance

RISFSA process: ◦ Reclassify roads according to functional classes◦ Review administrative responsibility for roads◦ Develop a standard approach to road prioritisation

Progress◦ All provinces in process of reclassifying network

with municipalities◦ 2013/14 Assignment of administrative
