Four people have died in a crash involving three cars near Ysterberg Mountain, outside Polokwane in Limpopo. Both lanes of the N1 are closed to traffic.
This is the second fatal crash on the stretch of the road on Sunday. Five people died earlier when a taxi experienced a tyre burst.
Transport spokesperson Dali Tshifhiwa says, Road users going to Johannesburg and also Polokwane are advised to use alternative routes. The motorists travelling from Gauteng must use the Nyl Plaza off-ramp and join the R101 and those travelling to Gauteng must use the R101 from Polokwane. We regret the inconvenience caused. - Reporting by Anna Masipa.
