25 March 2019
The Minister of Transport strongly condemns the blockade of the Cliffdale part of the N3 highway between Pietermaritzburg and Durban by some truck drivers on Sunday 24 March 2019.
We urge the law enforcement agencies to ensure that those who break the law and disrupt the flow of traffic are apprehended and for the trucks to be impounded.
“It is disingenuous for some truck drivers to block the road or engage in any protest whist there are current engagements between government and the foundations, said Minister Nzimande.
Minister Nzimande further said that by blocking the N3 these truck drivers not only block the traffic flow but also sabotage the economy of the country.
