SANRAL in the market for a new CEO
Pretoria, 13 July 2015. The South African National Roads Agency SOC Ltd (SANRAL) had advertised for a new Chief Executive Officer. The current CEO, Mr Nazir Alli, reaches retirement age – 65 – in August this year.
“However, his last day in the office will be determined by the Minister of Transport, in consultation with SANRAL’s Board, subsequent to the appointment of the new CEO and a hand-over period,” says Roshan Morar, SANRAL Board Chair.
Alli has been at the helm of the organisation since its inception in 1998.
He has been at the forefront of modernising South Africa’s national road network to world class standards for 17 years, and his impeccable track record speaks for itself.
Under his leadership, SANRAL has grown from managing a road network of 7 200km in 1998 to 21 403km currently, which is expected to grow to 35 000km in the future. The roads and other related infrastructure that have been built by SANRAL under his auspices are of outstanding quality, and have won numerous global awards in engineering excellence.
