TRAFFIC TURMOIL

G20 Summit — here are the routes that Joburg drivers should avoid this weekend

As Johannesburg prepares to roll out the red carpet for the G20 Summit, motorists are advised to steer clear of Nasrec, OR Tambo, and Sandton unless they fancy a scenic detour through the city's most congested backroads.

With the Johannesburg G20 Summit scheduled for this Saturday and Sunday, the Road Traffic Management Corporation has warned motorists to expect significant traffic disruptions and road closures. The organisation published an updated list of the routes that will be affected.

Motorists are also advised that when convoys carrying delegates are moving, roads will be completely closed off, and access to other motorists and pedestrians will be limited. Motorists are advised to plan ahead and use alternative routes, particularly near Nasrec, OR Tambo International Airport and Sandton. DM
