Motorists heading towards the R300 in the direction of the N1 inbound are currently facing severe delays as the road is effectively shut down by ongoing protests, Cape town Etc reports.
These protesters have taken to the streets, burning tires and blocking traffic in a demonstration that has halted all vehicles approaching the Hindle Road area.
