N2 traffic diverted near uMfolozi amid road upgrades

As part of Sanral’s extensive road upgrades, traffic on the N2 near the Mfolozi River will be diverted as of this week, owing to ongoing infrastructure repairs to this section of the national route.

Barriers will be placed on the N2 and vehicles will be diverted off the N2 (Section 29) before and after Mfolozi River.

According to the South African National Road Agency SOC Limited (Sanral), the diversion will be in place for a minimum of five months, until May.

“Barriers will be placed on the N2 north- and southbound lanes on Tuesday, 23 January.

“During and after the placement of the barriers, traffic will be accommodated by means of a diversion,” said Sanral Eastern Region project manager Serisha Sukraj.

Motorists are advised to plan their routes accordingly and allow for extra travel time.

“We further appeal to road users to adhere to the road signs and speed limit when approaching and travelling through the construction site.

“Sanral apologises for any inconvenience this may cause and asks for your understanding as they work to make the necessary upgrades,” said Sukraj.
