TRAFFIC ADVISORY

Closures on N3/M13 off ramp and Hammarsdale Interchange, KwaZulu-Natal

Pietermaritzburg, 16 February 2024 – The South African National Roads Agency SOC Limited (SANRAL) has announced that traffic lanes on the N3, northbound and southbound, between the N3/M13 and Hammarsdale Interchanges will be reduced in width from 29 February 2024 to 29 July 2024, as part of the current upgrades.

Short-term single lane closures will be necessary between the N3/M13 and Hammarsdale Interchanges from 29 February 2024 to 30 April 2024 between 20:00 pm and 05:00 am, for the placement of concrete barriers and for the remarking of traffic lanes. The Road Traffic Inspectorate (RTI), with the assistance of SANRAL’s contractor’s traffic accommodation team, will manage and monitor traffic during these closures.

Concrete barriers will steer traffic away from the construction work. Traffic will be flowing on all lanes and will be reduced in lane width from the N3/M13 merger to the Hammarsdale off-ramp.

“Motorists are urged to be patient during these closures and to plan and adjust their routes to ensure they arrive on time at their destinations while adhering to sign-posted speed limits. SANRAL wishes to thank the public for their patience during these necessary road constructions,” said SANRAL project manager, Jason Lowe.
