Part of R40 on the verge of temporary closure

A section of the R40 between White River and Hazyview has collapsed.

Traffic law enforcement officers are currently diverting traffic onto the Numbi road due to a part of the road collapsing at Klipkopjie Dam.

This is due to the heavy rainfall that the Lowveld has been experiencing since yesterday, February 9.
