Protests in Musina likely to affect movement at Beit Bridge border post
12 May 2022 – SARS wishes to make you aware of protests currently taking place in and around Musina. Frustrations around service delivery failures are said to be at the root of the protests and have led to burning of objects and blocking of roads, which might hinder travellers moving in and out of Musina through the Beit Bridge border post.
At this point, the situation seems to be worsening, with police having fired rubber bullets near the Musina Mall to disperse crowds. In addition, the protests continue to take place sporadically at night.
During this time, you are kindly advised to keep your vehicles in the truck parks around the border vicinity, and delay going to Musina until the protests have subsided. Travellers wanting to use the Beitbridge border post are advised that they may use the Groblers Bridge border post along the N11. Note that this is the only alternate border post in the Limpopo Province.
We apologise for any inconvenience that may be caused during this time and appeal to all traders and travellers to avoid points of protest and keep safe.
