HEAVY REHABILITATION ROAD WORKS ON MAIN ROAD 1-1 (M13) FIELDS HILL ON THE WEST & EAST BOUND CARRIAGEWAYS FROM 19H00 ON SUNDAY 5TH SEPTEMBER TO 05H00 ON THURSDAY 23RD SEPTEMBER 2004The KwaZulu-Natal Department of Transport wishes to inform the general public of rehabilitation road works on the M13 Fields Hill between Old Main Road/Richmond Road Interchange and Wyebank/Village Road Interchange on both West & East bound carriageways which commenced on 5th September until 23rd September 2004. The rehabilitation process (asphalt deep milling and asphalt overlay surfacing) will be undertaken during the night commencing at 19H00 and ending by 05H00, thus providing the least disruption to traffic. Traffic will be accommodated during this period through restricted demarcated lanes. The intention is to have no road works during daytime and weekends. All road users are requested to drive with extreme caution and ensure awareness of heavy construction machinery and equipment that will be used during the rehabilitation period. Previously, problem areas were identified on Fields Hill and were rehabilitated during the 2003/4 financial year during night operations. This proved very successful, particularly for the motoring public frequently utilizing Fields Hill. The KZN Transport Department apologizes for any inconvenience caused to the public and for the unfortunate construction noise during the rehabilitation period and requests your co-operation with the traffic control measures when using this route. For further information and enquiries please contact the Office of the Regional Director: Durban on (031) 700 2222.
