Protesters burnt tyres and blockaded the N2 near Khayelitsha on Saturday, a Cape Town traffic spokeswoman said.
“There is a protest march on the N2. There were reports of stone throwing and burning of tyres,” said Chief Inspector Merle Lourens.
The protest started after 3am.
She said the centre lane of the N2 going towards Cape Town was closed as a result of the illegal protest. Protesters had dug a hole on the highway and the city had dispatched repairmen to fix it, said Lourens.
The reason for the protest was unknown but police were monitoring. - Sapa
