Protests are held countrywide following President Jacob Zuma’s recent cabinet reshuffle.
The Advertiser is aware of a march that is taking place in Benoni (Northmead).
There were also protests along the R21 but is it understood the highway is now open.
In Johannesburg, protesting residents have all but stopped traffic going south on Beyers Naudé Drive near the N1 Highway, and have blocked one lane going south near the Roosevelt Park substation.
Motorists are urged to find alternate routes where possible.
Around 10 000 protesters are expected at the DA’s march at Mary Fitzgerald Square, while residents are also gathering at Beyers Naudé Drive, the Roosevelt Park substation, Hendrik Potgieter Road in Roodepoort, Witkoppen Road, and along Conrad Drive in Blairgowrie today.
In Pretoria the Save SA campaign has organised a march to the Union Buildings calling for President Jacob Zuma to step down.
