ABRAHAMSRUST BEING REVITALISED

The Abrahamsrust resort on the banks of the Vaal River in Sasolburg, was temporarily closed to the public on 10 October 2019. Sasol, the land owner, took this measure subsequent to the expiry of the 20 year lease to the Metsimaholo Local Municipality to ensure improvement on safety, health and functionality related issues at Abrahamsrust. Since the closure, Sasol has made several upgrades to the facilities, in particular to the entrance, chalets, park homes, lapa, swimming pools, roads as well as the water and sewer reticulation system. “These upgrades are being done because we care about the safety and well-being of our employees and our community, but also to ensure that continuous public access to the Vaal River at Abrahamsrust is maintained. We aim to make every visit to the resort optimally enjoyable,” said Rightwell Laxa, Senior Vice President, Sasol’s Sasolburg and Ekandustria Operations. As upgrade work is still in progress, the exact date for the reopening  of the new improved Abrahamsrust will be shared in due course.
