The traffic congestion has caused frustration on the roads and at one point affected emergency services attending to an incident in Bluff, south of Durban. “The bypass road ties in with the decongestion task team mandate, which seeks to decongest the port.”“The road is about 1.6km long and is a unidirectional single carriageway consisting of two lanes towards Island View and the Durban container terminals,” said port engineer Malefetsane Setaka.
