Hard week for heavy vehicles

Traffic was disrupted in 3rd street East yesterday morning when a trailer loaded with a container detached from a truck and ended up on its side in one of the double lanes.

The truck was heading towards the port main entrance and as it was turning into 3rd street East, the trailer detached and fell to its side with container and all. A traffic officer arrived at the scene, to redirect the traffic in the area. A crane had to get the trailer back on its wheels again.
Also, on Tuesday a bus was destroyed by fire on the C14 airport road. The cause of the fire is yet to be determined. Strong winds fanned the flames and the bus was totally destroyed within minutes. The emergency services attended the scene.
