#TrafficAlert – Meyer Street road-works posing as threat to motorists

The repair of the pothole on Meyer Street that started on Tuesday afternoon, has been left unattended leaving motorists to their own devices.

One of the lanes have been closed and the traffic regulators who directed traffic yesterday, are nowhere to be seen.
Motorists are complaining that the scene is an accident waiting to happen.

Heavy duty vehicles, who frequently use the route, have no real warning when approaching the area and several trucks have swerved into oncoming traffic and were unable to stop in time.
