Traffic interruptions set for N3
Blasting operations have been scheduled for around 3pm on Tuesday on the N3 near the Hammarsdale interchange. Traffic will be diverted to an alternate route.
MOTORISTS travelling on the N3 near the Hammarsdale interchange tomorrow, Tuesday, 15 November, are warned that a blasting operation has been scheduled for approximately 3pm.
Both carriageways of the N3 between the Cato Ridge and Peacevale Interchanges will be closed between 3pm and 4pm. However, the blasting time may need to be adjusted depending on weather conditions on the day. Traffic will be diverted onto the R103 at Shongweni and Cato Ridge interchanges.
Due to the close proximity of the blast site to Meadway Road and MR385, it will be necessary to close Meadway Road and MR385 in the vicinity of the interchange during the blast operation. Traffic on Meadway Road will be diverted via Thousand Hills Drive. Steps will be taken to ensure that the roads are closed for the shortest possible time.
Motorists are urged to proceed with caution and adhere to speed limits. The patience and co-operation of motorists will be appreciated. SANRAL apologises to the motoring public for any inconvenience caused and thanks them for their patience during road construction.
