1 Executive Summary Century Property Developments plans to develop 193 ha located along the N3 freeway in Johannesburg, in Linksfield. The site is located west of the N3 freeway between Linksfield (M16) interchange and the Modderfontein (R25) interchange. The Linksfield development water utilisation will have an impact on existing bulk infrastructure systems. In order to quantify this impact GLS Consulting was approached for technical advice. The potable water infrastructure system requires an upgrade and new infrastructure i.e. ■ Construction of new transfer infrastructure: (Refer to drawing SKC004, Appendix A) Water supply the Linksfield development (as well as adjacent Huddle Park development) through a new 600 mm pipe (Item LRR1.1) and PRV (Item LRR1.2), to be connected to the existing 750 mm Ø pipeline running from the Linksfield Reservoir. The required length of the new pipeline section is approximately 2020 m. ■ Expansion of existing infrastructure capacities: (Refer to drawing SKC004, Appendix A) The 750 mm Ø pipeline from the Linksfiled reservoir has capacity to accommodate both the Linksfield and Huddle Park developments, but it is recommended that it be replaced with a 1000 mm Ø pipeline (Item LRR2.1) in the near future as velocities will ultimately exceed 3 m/s and due to the fact that is has a limited remaining useful life. The required length of pipeline upgrade is approximately 970 m. The sewage system is currently undergoing upgrades and would have enough capacity to accommodate allow the Linksfield Development sewage. 5
2 Site Description Century Property Developments plans to develop 193 ha located along the N3 freeway in Johannesburg, in Linksfield. The site is located west of the N3 freeway between Linksfield (M16) interchange and the Modderfontein (R25) interchange. The site location is indicated in Figure 1 and Figure 2. Figure 1 : Linksfied development location within wider Johannesburg Project number: 16013 Dated: 2013/01/30 6 Revised:
Figure 2 : Linksfield development location 2 The proposed development aims to provide 8000 residential bond units and space for retail (150 000 m ), 2 2 2 offices (300 000 m ), light industrial (300 000 m ) and hotel and conference facilities (50 000 m ). The expected zoning layout of the proposed development is reflect in Figure 3 and Figure 4. 7
Figure 3 : Proposed site zoning areas Site topography is characterised by moderately steep gradients that slope towards the Jukskei River. The Jukskei river routes from the south-eastern side to the northern side at an average gradient of 2.1%. The site topography is characterised by relatively steep gradient sloping towards the Jukskei river. Project number: 16013 Dated: 2013/01/30 8 Revised:
Figure 4 : Linksfield development site layout 3 Bulk Services The Linksfield development water utilisation will have an impact on existing bulk infrastructure systems. In order to quantify this impact GLS Consulting was approached for technical advice. In the subsequent assessment, GLS applied up to date geographic information, current system capacities and bulk service master planning. Sewage master planning that were pertinent to the proposed development are the Bruma Sewer Network Analysis Report in October 2008 (Report No. JWAT-C-0155-00-01-2008) by CES Consulting. Applicable potable water infrastructure master planning are; ■ Modderhill & Chloorkop Water Districts (Report No. JWAT-C-141-00-01-1208), December 2008. ■ Parktown 1/Linksfield Water Sub-districts (Reports No. JWAT-C-0184-00-01-0810), August 2010. ■ Randjeslaagte Water Sub-District (Report No. JWAT-C-0185-00-01-0610), June 2012. 9
Demand assessments and bulk service implications are as follows; 3.1 Water Reticulation 3.1.1 Water Demand Water demand is predicted by using water demand rates recommended by Johannesburg Water (JW). The 3 average daily water demand for the full development is projected at 9900 m /d. The instantaneous demand however is recommended to be four times higher (peak factor of 4) than the daily average would advocate. The instantaneous demand, therefore translates to 458 l/s. The instantaneous demand is a key parameter in the hydraulic assessment of the development’s impact on existing water transfer infrastructure. 3.1.2 Proposed water transfer infrastructure The findings the GLS’s assessment is reflected in upgrades and expansions to the current water transfer system. The proposals are indicated on drawing SKC004 and SKC 005, attached in Appendix A, and summarized as follows; ■ Construction of new transfer infrastructure: Water supply the Linksfield development (as well as adjacent Huddle Park development) through a new 600 mm pipe (Item LRR1.1) and PRV (Item LRR1.2), to be connected to the existing 750 mm Ø pipeline running from the Linksfield Reservoir. The pipeline will run parallel to and to the northen side of Club Street (M16) between Grand Road and a point approximately 225 m measured along Club street from the intersection with Linksfield Road. The length of the new pipeline section is approximately 2030 m. A drawing that reflects the location of the proposed water main is shown in Figure 5.

Figure 5 : Linksfield development proposed water main location ■ Expansion of existing infrastructure capacities: The 750 mm Ø pipeline from the Linksfiled reservoir has capacity to accommodate both the Linksfield and Huddle Park developments, but it is recommended that it be replaced with a 1000 mm Ø pipeline (Item LRR2.1) in the near future as velocities will ultimately exceed 3 m/s and due to the fact that is has a limited remaining useful life. The required length of pipeline upgrade is approximately 970 m. ■ Future system reconfigurations The high-lying portion of the Linksfield development and the existing Edenvale General Hospital should in future be supplied via the West of N3 direct feed system, with the rest of the consumers currently supplied via this direct feed system then being supplied via the proposed Linksfield bulk system. Furthermore, the pipe diameters of the existing West of N3 direct feed system needs to be confirmed on site. 11
3.2 Sewer Reticulation 3.2.1 Sewer generation An assessment of the average peak daily dry weather sewer flow for the proposed development was done by GLS consulting. The estimate is based on sewer production rates as prescribed by JW, and is estimated at 3 6930 m /d. 3.2.2 Existing sewage The existing sewage system in and around the links field Development are indicated on drawing SKC003 , attached in Appendix B. The Bruma Outfall has limited spare capacity available to accommodate the proposed Linksfield Development seweage, but capacity will be sufficient once the diversion of the Illiondale pump station to the Modderfontein outfall has been completed. The construction is in progress. 3.2.3 Proposed sewage infrastructure Four sewer connections (labelled A,B,C and D) to the Bruma Outfall are proposed to serve the Linksfield development as indicated on SKC003 , attached in Appendix B; 3.3 Stormwater Stormwater has a significant influence on site development methodology. Run-off volumes will increase and accumulate at a quicker rate. The natural drainage system (i.e. Juksie River) will have to transfer faster arriving additional stormwater. In order to offset the potential unfavourable impact of post development the change in development hydrology, stormwater attenuation is essential. Two strategies have been identified; ■ Attenuation of accumulated stormwater in the Jukskei River; ■ Attenuation of stormwater before draining into the Jukskei River i.e. segregated on-site attenuation. Both the strategies will have the same effect, i.e. ensuring that the downstream post development hydrograph is unaltered. This suggests that pre-development and post-development run-off volume and stormwater accumulation rate is unaltered. Project number: 16013 Dated: 2013/01/30 12 Revised:
3.3.1 Attenuation in Jukskei River The difference in pre-development and post-development stormwater volumetric flow rate requires attenuation. A practical methodology is detention with engineered release of confined stormwater. Implementation of this methodology can take the form of a retaining structure within the Jukskei River, as reflected in Figure 6. The retaining structure will typically be integrated with the roadway bridging structure with engineered outlets to ensure a pre-development hydrograph. The result will be marginal widening of the floodline during design storm occurrence. Possible retaining structure Figure 6 : Detention of the Jukskei River The proposes detention facility will only be utilised during design storm occurrence. The flood plain can therefore be utilised for biodiversity establishment, reinstatement of the Jukskei River ecology and inventive recreational facilities. This can only contribute to the ecological well-being of the Linksfield area and broader Johannesburg. 13
3.3.2 Segregated on-site attenuation 3 A requirement of for on-site detention is 350 m of detention per hectare of development. The proposed 3 development is 194 ha, and would therefore result in 67900 m of detention facilities, or water retaining systems. Attenuation will take the form of seven separate water retaining facilities on development. Each facility will detain a fraction of the run-off, and ultimately being transferred to the Jukskei River. The division of the detention into separate smaller fractions may result in less potential ecological benefits. Project number: 16013 Dated: 2013/01/30 14 Revised:
