Fallen trees cause early morning traffic chaos
JOBURG - Two fallen trees, one on William Nicol Drive and the other on Beyers Naude Drive are causing early morning traffic chaos for commuters.

The fallen tree at the corner of Beyers Naude Drive and Judith Road is currently blocking one lane of traffic but combined with added road closures in the Zandspruit area there is huge traffic build-up on Beyers Naude Drive.
The fallen tree on William Nicol Drive, near the Main Road split in Bryanston, is blocking two lanes of traffic.
Traffic lights are also out on William Nicol Drive.
Commuters are urged to avoid both these routes if possible.
