Update 13 – Gwaiing Road Construction Works, George

14 January 2026

The Garden Route District Municipality (GRDM) Roads Services Team resumed construction work on the Gwaiing Road yesterday.

Construction teams are currently importing material for the final gravel layer on the left-hand side (LHS) lane. Processing of this layer is expected to commence towards the end of the week. The project remains on track, with the second lane scheduled to be sealed and fully completed during February.

Concrete works for the remaining side drains are also in progress.

Access to the road remains restricted to residents only, with a 40 km/h speed limit in place. Traffic is currently limited to single-lane flow on the completed surfaced section, as the LHS lane remains closed for construction.
