# The Western Cape Government says disaster management teams remain on high alert as heavy rain continues to affect the Central Karoo and Garden Route. Flooding has forced the closure of the N1 at Leeu Gamka, while several other roads, including Molteno Pass and parts of the R328, have also been shut due to weather-related damage. Local Government, Environmental Affairs and Development Planning MEC Anton Bredell says dams are overflowing, rivers are flooding, and power outages have been reported in parts of the Garden Route.
