G20 day two: Key road closures and alternative routes to use

Executive Summary

Motorists in Johannesburg face significant traffic delays on Sunday as the G20 summit enters its final day, with high-volume VIP movements triggering rolling closures on major highways and routes. The Johannesburg Metropolitan Police Department specified closures in the Nasrec precinct, including Nasrec Road and parts of Rand Show Road and Golden Highway, alongside disruptions on Sandton and Rosebank roads like Grayston Drive and Rivonia Road, particularly from 7am to 10am and 3pm to 8pm. Severe thunderstorms are also forecast for Gauteng, exacerbating risks amid fragile traffic networks. Authorities urge avoiding key highways like the N1 and M1, using alternatives such as Beyers Naudé Drive, and driving cautiously to prevent accidents.
