Walvis Bay commences with scaled-up pothole repair Niël Terblanché The Municipality of Walvis Bay has ramped up repairs to the port town’s road infrastructure, with an in-house team currently addressing potholes and clearing debris across various parts of the town. The latest initiative runs in parallel with a larger, multi-year road rehabilitation project backed by the Roads Authority (RA) and the Roads Fund Administration (RFA). In a statement issued by the port town’s municipality, residents were advised to exercise caution around construction areas, follow signage, and cooperate with flagmen stationed on affected roads. According to the statement, updates on road closures and progress will be communicated through official channels. The road rehabilitation project, originally budgeted at N$250 million, has since received a boost, bringing the total allocation to approximately N$400 million over five years. According to the municipality, the funds allocated for Walvis Bay do not come from the municipal coffers nor are they administered by local authorities, clarifying the structure of the collaboration between local and national institutions. The initiative focuses on rehabilitating key urban roads to support the port city’s increasing traffic volumes and its role in national and regional trade. The improvements are expected to benefit both the logistics sector and the general public by reducing delays and enhancing road safety. “This joined commitment by the Municipality of Walvis Bay, RA and RFA affirms Walvis Bay’s strategic importance in Namibia’s road network and national logistics ambitions,” the statement said. Current works are concentrated in the Heavy Industrial Area, where five major roads are being upgraded. These are Allan Dean Martin Street, 3rd Street, 3rd Street East, 2nd Street, and Railway Street. These routes are crucial for moving goods between the Port of Walvis Bay and the surrounding industrial zones. According to the statement, construction on Allan Dean Martin Street is progressing using a half-width construction method, keeping one lane open to minimise traffic disruptions. So far, 200 metres of the base layer and 560 metres of the subbase have been completed, with flag personnel and signage deployed to maintain traffic flow. Work on 3rd Street is focused on replacing the existing sewer line, which the municipality says “will significantly improve underground infrastructure and long-term service reliability.” Engagement with affected businesses has been ongoing. Meetings were held both before and during construction to ensure clear communication, and building assessments were conducted to document the structural conditions before the movement of heavy machinery. According to the municipality’s statement, the repairs and upgrades are part of a broader effort to reinforce Walvis Bay’s standing as a modern and efficient port city with reliable infrastructure serving residents, industry, and regional trade corridors.

Walvis Bay road rehabilitation project receives N$400 million boost The Road Fund Administration (RFA) has given Walvis Bay’s ongoing road rehabilitation and reconstruction project a significant financial injection of approximately N$400 million over a five-year implementation period. The project was initially budgeted at N$250 million, aimed at modernising key roadways and strengthening the town’s role as a logistics and trade hub. The funding is managed at the national level and does not flow through local municipal accounts. “This enhanced investment underscores Namibia’s commitment to ensuring Walvis Bay continues to thrive as a gateway for international trade and economic growth,” says Anita Kaihiva, the municipality’s communication officer. The multi-phased project, being executed in partnership with the Roads Authority (RA) and the RFA, focuses on rehabilitating urban roads critical to port-related logistics and industrial activity. It aims to reduce transport delays, improve road safety and bolster access to commercial zones. “This upgrade will not only improve traffic flow for freight operators but also deliver real benefits to residents by enhancing road safety, municipal services and overall connectivity,” Kaihiva notes. Current rehabilitation efforts are concentrated on five essential roads in the Heavy Industrial Area, which serve as lifelines between the Port of Walvis Bay and surrounding economic zones. These include Allan Dean Martin Street, 3rd Street, 3rd Street East, 2nd Street and Railway Street, which handle a high volume of heavy vehicle traffic and are crucial to the town’s supply chain efficiency. Work is currently progressing on two of the identified roads, particularly Allan Dean Martin Street where construction is underway using a half-width method to ensure one lane remains open for traffic. Five hundred and sixty meters of the subbase layer and 200 meters of the base layer have also been completed there while a traffic management plan, approved by the Walvis Bay Traffic Department, is in place, with signage and flag personnel ensuring safety and order. Meanwhile, on 3rd Street, crews are currently replacing the sewer line, a critical upgrade that will improve underground infrastructure and long-term service reliability. The municipality says that business owners were consulted through pre-construction meetings at the street to maintain open communication and minimise disruptions. “Pre-structural assessments of nearby buildings were conducted to document property conditions and manage risks associated with heavy construction equipment,” Kaihiva says. The municipality urged residents and businesses to exercise caution, follow construction signage, and cooperate with traffic flagmen as work continues. “This project reflects our shared vision for Walvis Bay as a modern, efficient port city underpinned by safe, resilient infrastructure,” Kaihiva says.
