TRAFFIC ADVISORY

PHASE 1 REPAIRS TO THE N2 AMANZIMTOTI SET FOR COMPLETION JUST IN TIME BEFORE THE FESTIVE SEASON BEGINS

Pietermaritzburg, 2 December 2022 – Phase 1 repairs to restore mobility on the N2 Amanzimtoti northbound carriageway are set to be completed in the week commencing 5 December 2022, the South African National Roads Agency SOC Limited (SANRAL) has announced.

“The contract to fix the N2 Amanzimtoti is still out on tender. The repairs that are being completed in the week starting 5 December 2022 is temporary routine road maintenance (RRM) work to keep traffic flowing on both lanes of the northbound carriageway,” said Trevor Zumani, SANRAL’s Eastern Region Project Manager. The damage on the N2 Amanzimtoti occurred on 3 April 2022 and, while SANRAL was conducting in-depth investigations and preparing for the necessary designs and repairs to this failure, KwaZulu-Natal experienced floods from 11 to 13 April 2022, which resulted in minor and major failures throughout the network. “The completion of the works depend on good weather as delays will be encountered if it rains,” said Zumani.

SANRAL apologises for the inconvenience caused to motorists.
