"At this stage the other part of the road has been resealed but still closed for use by the public, leaving users having to use the temporary gravel bypass."

A road project between Delareyville and Madibogo Village in North West is still ongoing, despite the project having started two years ago.

The 15km stretch of road is used by villagers to do their shopping in Delareyville and connects them to nearby towns and other Villages.

One motorist says the road project has been ongoing for a long time, and that the maintenance of gravel road is not good as vehicles get punctures.
