The entire N3 Toll Route from Cedara to Heidelberg has been closed.
In a statement, the N3 Toll Concession says that the entire route from Cedara in KwaZulu-Natal to Heidelberg south in Gauteng will remain closed until further notice.
New reports were received on Monday night of a violent mob looting the Engen Tugela One Stop North, and of protestors burning tyres along this section of the route.
The security of Tugela Plaza in KwaZulu-Natal and De Hoek Plaza is also under renewed threat.
Personnel have been evacuated from all toll plazas on the route.
