The R555 Stoffberg-road is closed.

No traffic will be allowed through.

The road is closed during the ongoing, complicated recovery of a fuel tanker involved.

The tanker collided head-on with a sprinter around 05:00 this morning.

The tanker that overturned in the crash, carries fuel.

The fuel is being pumped into another tanker before the wreck can be removed safely.

There’s unfortunately no guessing as to when the road will be open again.

It may reopen any time from 20:00 to dawn.
