Gauteng, 12 April 2024 – The R21 is closed in both directions, between Nellmapius Drive and the Olifantsfontein Interchange, the South African National Roads Agency SOC Limited (SANRAL) has announced.

“We appeal to road users to avoid this section of the road and make use of alternative routes, as repairs get underway. It is anticipated that the road will be closed for the next four to five hours,” said Progress Hlahla, SANRAL’s Northern Region Manager
SANRAL apologises for the inconvenience and will keep road users updated of progress and re-opening of the road.
