The two truck crash happened earlier on Sunday morning causing the closure of the road at Piekenierskloofpas.

All road users are requested to use the alternative routes:

  • From Cape Town on N7 use the Paleisheuwel turn off
  • From Clanwilliam use the Marcuskraal turn off
  • Please do not drive to the accident scene, you will be stuck there for a long time. And this put extra pressure on the first responders.

    We trust that we can count on your cooperation.
