TRAFFIC ADVISORY Temporary Turning Restrictions at N2 Beacon Way Intersection in Plettenberg Bay

Western Cape, 06 February 2025 – The South African National Roads Agency SOC Limited (SANRAL) would like to inform road users that there will be short term changes to the traffic flow through the construction works area at the Beacon Way Intersection on the N2 in Plettenberg Bay for a few days in the second week of February 2025.

In order for the Contractor to complete the asphalt layers around the circle and into Beacon Way, they must deviate traffic in the area around the circle and between the various newly constructed islands at the intersection.

The flow of traffic will be rerouted both out of Beacon Way and on the N2 over the next week.

In the interest of road safety, including the safety of the construction team, lane restrictions and lane rerouting will continue to be implemented at this intersection. Traffic coming out of Beacon Way will NOT be able to turn right and will be directed up to the circle at Shell for a few hours on TWO of next week’s days.

Similarly, motorists coming from Knysna and turning into Beacon Way will NOT be able to turn right into Beacon Way and will be directed along to the Old Nick / Keurbooms caravan park intersection or beyond for a few hours on TWO of next week’s days.

Due to the above conditions, motorists are requested to plan their trips accordingly and use alternative routes wherever possible.

Alternative Routes

• Road users going to Plettenberg Bay from Knysna should use the Marine Way entrance to move in and out.

• All road users leaving Plett, going to the malls in Beacon Way or moving in and out of Poortjies should use Bowtie or other routes to get onto the N2.

• Heavy motor vehicles that supply the mall in Beacon Way should use Marine Drive for deliveries.

All road users are requested to be mindful of the impact of the construction, to reduce speed, and to obey temporary and permanent signage when travelling through the construction area. SANRAL apologises for any inconvenience caused.
