Huguenot Tunnel reopens to all vehicles after wind chaos

# Motorists travelling between Cape Town and the Cape Winelands can breathe a sigh of relief as the Huguenot Tunnel has reopened to all vehicles. The tunnel on the N1 was closed on Friday due to strong winds sweeping the Western Cape, before reopening to light vehicles only on Saturday. The Western Cape government confirmed restrictions for heavier vehicles, caravans and trailers have now been lifted. The nearby Du Toitskloof Pass however remains closed, while Bainskloof Pass is open to Class 1 vehicles only.
