The Johannesburg Road Agency (JRA) is shutting down Main Reef Road as it undertakes rehabilitation work as part of the City’s R30 million upgrade project.

The project involves upgrading the M2 – Main Reef interchange at Press Street and the M2 onramp in a bid to decrease congestion and improve access.

The road closures will take place on Saturday, 10 February 2018, from 8am to 6pm. Press Street North bound towards Main Reef Road as well as the M1N/M2E onramp eastbound from Main Reef Road will be affected in both directions.

Main Reef westbound and eastbound between M2 West Rand offramp and Church/Crownwood Road will also be affected.

The JRA is urging motorists travelling along the affected routes to consider alternative routes or follow detour signs, travel at a safe distance upon entry into the construction area, travel at reduced speeds, be aware of men at work on site and adhere to traffic guidelines, flag persons and signage.
