ROAD S1437 AT HARRISMITH TO CLOSE FOR NINE MONTHS FOR MAINTENANCE
The Department of Community Safety, Roads and Transport (DCSRT) in the Free State Province wishes to notify the public, motorists and residents of Harrismith/Tshiame that road number S1437 at the junction with the S689 near Mabathe Farm School and the Kalanyoni Access road, will close on Wednesday, 27 September 2023 for a period of nine months due to the upgrading of internal roads in Harrismith.
All traffic is requested to deviate to the N5 and access the town via Tshiame A. It is crucial to plan your journeys accordingly to minimize inconvenience during this period.
The maintenance work on the road will enhance the safety of motorists and residents and the upgraded road infrastructure will result in smoother traffic flow, reducing congestion, and the time spent on the road.
Road S1437’s temporary closure may pose challenges, but it represents a significant step forward in Harrismith’s development. Let us embrace this opportunity to build a safer, more efficient, and prosperous future for all.
The DCSRT apologises for the inconvenience caused by the closure and appreciate the public’s cooperation and patience in this regard.
