Blasting on R58, Section 5 From Lady Grey to Barkley East, Eastern Cape

Gqerberha, 28 May 2024 – The South African National Roads Agency SOC Limited (SANRAL) advises road users that blasting is scheduled on the Wolfhuis Pass on the R58, Section 5 from Lady Grey to Barkley East, on Monday, 3 June 2024. The blast is planned for approximately 12:00pm. The road will be closed for about 30 minutes for blasting and subsequent cleaning operations.

“Unfortunately, there are no suitable alternative routes in this section. Any alternative route would take longer than waiting at the closure until the road is reopened,” said Mbulelo Peterson, SANRAL Southern Region’s Manager.

Motorists are asked to plan their trips accordingly, and to use caution when making use of the road.

SANRAL apologises for any inconvenience caused.
