“We expect to receive millions of people going to different churches and family gatherings, including the Moria Zion City pilgrimage, traffic flow will be high on all our major routes, especially the R71 to Moria, the N1 from Gauteng to Beitbridge and the N11 and Gilead Road from Groblersbridge.”
“Let us guard against speeding and fatigue as chances of one losing control of one’s vehicle are mostly higher when we are either tired or speeding. Limpopo is declared a zero tolerance zone against anyone who will not obey the rules of the road,” emphasised the MEC.
