Rustenburg on the road
Rustenburg is the platinum capital, and its roads are dominated by mine traffic: buses carrying shift workers, contractor bakkies, ore trucks and lowbeds moving machinery between the shafts at Phokeng, Marikana and Kroondal. The N4 Platinum Highway links the town to Pretoria and the Botswana border, and truck breakdowns on it are common. In town, commuter cars and minibus taxis from Tlhabane and Boitekong break down on Nelson Mandela Drive and the R510. Weekend traffic toward the Pilanesberg and Sun City brings caravans and boat trailers. Summer thunderstorms with hail can make the N4 slippery, and winter is dry and dusty. Mines, fleets and private motorists ask for tows and trailers.
The requests we see from Rustenburg usually come from:
- Construction, mining and plant hire: a damaged site bakkie or compact loader carried to the plant yard on a deck
- Company fleets and rental firms: electric and hybrid pool cars moved flat between depots and service centres
- Truckers, buses and logistics: a crew cab or light panel van carried on a heavier rollback to the workshop
