[Johannesburg, South Africa, 20 May 2020] Construction work on current infrastructure projects within South Africa’s ports will not resume under Level 4 of the country’s COVID-19 lockdown according to the latest list provided by Government.

The government’s Level 4 regulations refer to reactivation only of the following construction activities:
- Civil engineering for public works projects (including water, energy and sanitation),
- Public works civil engineering and construction works,
- Road and bridge projects, including local road repairs, and
- Critical maintenance and repairs.
