Sasol promotes road safety
in our communities by
refurbishing unsafe roads
Sasolburg Operations
The high-volume roads in Metsimaholo are currently
in a poor condition with storm water damage and
potholes that pose a high risk to Sasol employees,
service providers and the public.
This intervention will be a symbol of how Sasol
cares about the safety of road users to the broader
Metsimaholo community.
Ekandustria Operations
The conditions of the roads have deteriorated to
such an extent that new potholes develop daily. The
provincial access roads that have large potholes
pose huge risks to road users, such as high-speed
accidents, fatalities and major vehicle damage.
Sasol identified a need for urgent intervention
to secure the safety of the broader community
which includes Sasol employees. There is also a
need to maintain these access roads as they form
an integral part of transportation of products for
Sasolburg Operations.
There was a need to address the safety of road users
in the four areas that form part of the Ekandustria
Operations fenceline community. Road markings,
signage and road furniture are improved to meet
minimum standard compliance for road safety.
Safety is a top priority for Sasol and this project
demonstrates Sasol’s commitment to the
communities in which Sasol operates in.
