Transport minister Fikile Mbalula on Thursday said the airport, like others around the country grounded since late March under a lockdown aimed at slowing down Covid-19 infections, would reopen for business travellers and cargo as restrictions are gradually eased.
He said the health department and ACSA would partner to ensure Covid-19 screening was conducted at the airport until the need no longer existed. Essential workers have also been put on staggered shifts, while key signage and overhead announcements of Covid-19 safety measures are in place.
