Between 08H00 and 17H00 on Saturday, 16 August 2025, the N3 Toll Route will be closed to traffic in both directions at Balgowan Interchange (Bosch Hoek) while the bridge beam is being replaced.
All traffic will be diverted (off and back onto the N3) using the ramps at the Balgowan Interchange (Exit 125). Law enforcement officials, assisted by N3TC Route Services, will manage the temporary closure of the N3 Toll Route.
N3TC appeals to motorists to approach the construction area with caution, to pay close attention to warning signs, and to carefully follow all safety instructions.
For further information on the scheduled repair work, to obtain verified traffic information, or for emergency assistance, follow @N3Route on X, or contact the 24-hour N3 Helpline on
0800 63 43 57.
NB! The work is largely dependent on the availability of two large cranes required to replace the concrete beam. Should circumstances change for any reason, the works may have to be rescheduled.
