KwaZulu-Natal motorists witnessed a remarkable sight on Wednesday as an abnormal-load truck transported a massive 35-ton windmill blade along the N2 highway.
The 100-meter-long vehicle traveled at a slow pace toward the Pongola/Piet Retief border, causing potential traffic delays. Authorities have urged motorists in the area to plan their journeys accordingly to avoid extended travel times.
The transportation of large wind turbine components is becoming more common as South Africa expands its renewable energy infrastructure.
