Hotel Road over the N1 near the Shell Ultra City – Schematic 2
A short deviation of the N1 has been built near the Shell Ultra City to allow construction of the Hotel Bridge to proceed. Traffic will be reduced from 2 lanes per direction to 1 lane per direction. The north-south bi-directional flow will be separated by traffic delineators and motorists should proceed with care.
Construction of the new Southbound Overpass at the R37 Interchange – Schematic 2
Traffic will be diverted from the existing N1 onto the newly constructed eastern Ramps of the future Interchange (Ramps C and D in the attached schematic).
Once the traffic has been diverted, this will allow construction of the new N1 southbound bridge over the R37 to proceed. Traffic will continue as normal North and South through the deviation.
The aforementioned deviations will be implemented between the 1st of August and the 11th of August 2017.
Sanral has apologised for any inconvenience caused and thanks motorists for their patience and cooperation during the construction period.
