The N3 in the Free State and KwaZulu Natal was open to traffic on Friday morning following a major truck blockade on Van Reenen’s Pass that both the Road Freight Association and commerce labelled “economic sabotage” of the country.
Minister of Transport, Fikile Mbalula, is set to meet with stakeholders in the logistics sector to address the problems the sector is facing after the All Truck Driver Forum of South Africa (ATDF) distanced itself from the latest truck blockade, although it took responsibility for a truck blockade on the N3 near Warden on Tuesday.
