PROJECT NARRATIVE
Project: Taylors Halt Commercial Node Development
Purpose: The aim of the project is to establish Taylors Halt as a commercial node for
the Vulindlela area that falls under uMsunduzi Municipality.
Background: Taylors Halt is located where the Mpumuza, Mafunze and Nadi
Traditional Authority areas join each other. As this area is also situated along the
development corridor of the provincial, district and local municipality, it has a huge
threshold covering the entire area. As a result, it has higher residential densities
compared to other settlements located away from it.
Outcomes: -Definition of the structure and form of the area
-Establishment of a tool to be used in allocating land for respective uses
-Promote local economic development
- Facilitate equitable decentralization and access to public facilities and
the associated services
