Provincial disaster status to enable rebuilding funding
About 100 roads in the Western Cape have been closed due to damage caused by the recent storms. While some major routes have been reopened, others like the Franschhoek Pass, Meiringspoort and R43 to Worcester remain closed. The cost of repairs and reconstruction will run into several billion rand. eNCA’s Ayesha Ismail reports that Cogta Minister Velenkosini Hlabisa approved a classification of provincial disaster for the Western Cape. #enca #dstv403
