Blasting operations continue in Hammarsdale
The blasting operation will take place on Thursday, 2 March at the Hammarsdale Interchange on the N3.
THE South African National Roads Agency SOC Ltd (SANRAL) has issued a statement to notify motorists of additional blasting operations that will conducted at the Hammarsdale Interchange, on the N3 on Thursday, 2 March at 3pm.
This is the third time that road closures have been scheduled for the blasting operations.
Both carriageways of the N3 between the Cato Ridge and Peacevale Interchanges will be closed between 3pm and 4pm. However, according to SANRAL, the times may need to be adjusted depending on weather conditions. If need be, a second notice with information of the new time will be made available.
Traffic will be diverted onto the R103 at Shongweni and Cato Ridge interchanges.
Due to the close proximity of the blast site to Meadway Road and MR385, it will be necessary to close Meadway Road and MR385 in the vicinity of the interchange during the blast operation. Traffic on Meadway Road will be diverted via Thousand Hills Drive.
Motorists are urged to proceed with caution and adhere to speed limits. The patience and co-operation of motorists will be appreciated.
The agency assured motorists that steps will be taken to ensure that the roads are closed for the shortest possible time.
