Slow down, animals crossing

The Paulshof community chipped in to sponsor the sign which warns motorists that the section of Holkham Road, just outside the Rietfontien Nature Reserve, is a regular crossing for many animals that live in the reserve.

Friends of Rietfontein representatives explained, “There are a lot of really fast drivers on Holkham Road and they need to be aware that they are driving passed a nature reserve.”

They added that if motorists stick to the speed limit it would also ensure the safety of pedestrians and other motorists too.
