Azonic Posted October 22, 2012 Posted October 22, 2012 @Bennie Dikwiel What road are you using to get to PE from Seaview? The only road that still open is Kragga Kamma, albeit VERY wet up there. Then the highways will also still be open I assume. gummibear 1

Azonic Posted October 22, 2012 Posted October 22, 2012 Gummi, where was that last photo taken with the oke and the bakkie?
gummibear Posted October 22, 2012 Author Posted October 22, 2012 3rd Ave dip is going to be closed for a while.Maybe now they will lift the bridge a little to. pista 1
RossW Posted October 23, 2012 Posted October 23, 2012 Port Alfred Luckily being midway down a hill with depressions on either side has meant our house has come out pretty much unscathed. Septic tank and french drain has collapsed though. I would have had a beautiful view of Salt Vlei (bulldozer in road with wooden walkway pic) in full flood.
dracs Posted October 23, 2012 Posted October 23, 2012 Kouga Dam this morning Stupid question perhaps, but couldn't that damn be made a whole lot bigger (looking at that valley)... Just thinking of PE's endless water supply problems (drought drought drought flood).

Just thinking of PE's endless water supply problems (drought drought drought flood). All they needed to do was grade the silt up the sides and ride it away when they had the drought.It would have doubled the PE dams capacities and they could have made some money from the fertile soil.It will cost a few billion to expand the walls. pista 1
Bikeguy Posted October 23, 2012 Posted October 23, 2012 With regard Kouga - we working on it. First phase of project is to reinforce the wall and then in a "few years time" the wall heigh will be increased
