Motorists travelling north on the N2 from Amanzimtoti towards Durban CBD face a scheduled ramp closure at EB Cloete Interchange from 18:00 SAST on Saturday, 14 November, to 18:00 on Sunday, 15 November 2026.
The affected connection is the N2 northbound off-ramp to the N3 eastbound. The SANRAL notice dated 21 October says the closure is required for work on bridge supports.
Pietermaritzburg connection remains open under the plan
The notice says the N2 northbound ramp towards Pietermaritzburg and the remainder of the interchange stay open. This is a ramp restriction, not a planned shutdown of the whole interchange.
Road users should allow additional travel time and follow temporary detour signs. The timetable is a planned closure, not confirmation that barriers are already in place. Check current instructions before travelling.
