Vereeniging is the main town of the Vaal, on the river opposite the Free State and at the end of the R59 from Johannesburg. The R59, the N1 near Kliprivier and the R42 carry commuters, trucks and holiday traffic heading to river resorts. Industrial areas like Duncanville and Powerville run trucks and plant, while Three Rivers, Arcon Park and Henley on Klip are leafy suburbs with boats and caravans in the driveway. Highveld summer storms bring hail and flash floods on the low roads near the river, and winter mornings bring frost and thick Vaal fog.
