HOUTBOSCHRAND Only radio and landline comms here.

We have closed all the gravel roads here.

The road numbers are S39, S127, S147, S89 and 90.

Balule's guest can still use the low level bridge over the Olifants.
We will keep an eye on it since we expect the river to rise because of the rain on the Highveld
