Kruger Park makes significant road maintenance progress ahead of festive season
South African National Parks (SANParks) released the Kruger National Park (KNP) 100 days road maintenance report, detailing progress in the blading of gravel roads as part of the overall ongoing infrastructure and maintenance programme.
“This intervention also sought to ensure preparedness for the 2024 festive season as tourists are expected to visit in numbers during this period,” says KNP spokespersonIke Phaahla.
Most roads in the south of Olifants River (Marula Region of the park) were bladed between July and October and are constantly being monitored to ensure they remain in good condition. The repairs and maintenance included roads leading to many of the bush camps in the south of the park.
Repairs are ongoing with focus now directed at the northern side of the Olifants River (Nxanatseni Region of KNP), where considerable progress has been made.
“Road repairs are prioritised based on the extent of usage by park visitors. Roads that are most are given priority attention,” Phaahla says.
