Several roads will be closed on 24 and 25 May for the inauguration of the new president at Loftus Versfeld Stadium in Pretoria on Saturday.

More than 200 buses from all the provinces in South Africa will arrive in Tshwane from different directions, which will affect streets around and leading to the venue.

The Tshwane Metro Police Department, with other law enforcement agencies, will deploy members along these routes for traffic control and total road closures in Soutpansberg, Loftus and Hatfield.

Road closures will commence on Friday, 24 May 2019 at 15h00 and end on Saturday, 25 May 2019 at 22h00
