05 October 2025

No definitive timeline is available for when the Huguenot Tunnel will be reopened following last Friday’s bus fire.
The South African National Roads Agency (Sanral) is working around the clock to restore the tunnel to a safe operational condition.
Motorists are urged to plan accordingly, be patient and allow for additional traveling times as alternative routes are experiencing congestion.
For real-time Huguenot Tunnel information, contact 021 877 5400 or the Western Cape Government Traffic Law Enforcement Radio Control at 021 931 1646 or 021 931 3302.
