Hmmm... stoopid question.

 

Any ideas as to what may happen on the R44 section. Up till yesterday I had no worries about the road works. But now a long section has been closed (stop-go) for one lane. The other side is being resurfaced - more than the patch-ups they've done up till now. If they resurface the entire section, they will for sure still be busy somewhere along that stretch of road come next weekend.

 

Unless they get to a phase where both lanes are open, there's going to be serious hold-ups for other road users if cyclists are going to be waved through there the whole day. Esp with the varying strengths of people riding Burger.

 

FWIW, to give an idea of the length of the current stop-go, it is currently from about Red Star through till past the R312 turnoff - think till about at the gates of Diamant (horse farm) - that takes a good couple of minutes to cycle. By that time the next bunch will be at the beginning. And later on there'll be a more steady trickle of cyclists.
