Motorists found themselves navigating troubled waters on Walter Sisulu Street yesterday, after river levels rose and water built up near the magasyn.

A large pothole has worsened just before the Walter Sisulu- and Protea Street intersection, spanning across the lane that comes into town.

The northern-bound left lane at the Lilian Ngoyi- and Bhimy Damane intersection has also been cordoned off due to damage on the tar surface.
