No Easter fatalities on Limpopo’s N1, Creecy applauds law enforcement

Transport Minister Barbara Creecy has praised law enforcement officers for implementing effective road safety measures during the Easter weekend. She says she has noted a significant increase in traffic volumes as many holidaymakers return home from various destinations across the country.

Creecy has highlighted the rare achievement of the N1 route in Limpopo, which has not recorded any fatal crashes during the Easter holidays.

She addressed the media at the Kranskop Toll Gate at Middelfontein between Bela-Bela and Modimolle.

“This is a rare occurrence on this route. And it speaks of the effectiveness of our law enforcement and deployment plan in improving road safety outcomes. And let me take this opportunity to extend my thanks, particularly to the MEC and her team for the incredible work that they have done throughout this weekend in keeping people safe on the N1 and on the other routes in Limpopo.”
