Winter weather | Thick blanket of snow covers Barkly East

The Barkly Pass on the R58 between Barkly East and Khowa remains closed to traffic as it is still covered in a thick blanket of snow.
The pass was closed yesterday.
The sun is out, but due to the volume of snow on the road, it remains closed.
The spokesperson for the department of transport in the Eastern Cape, Unathi Binqose, says officers continue to monitor the situation at other high lying roads in the province.
It was only the Barkly Pass that was closed to traffic.
There are also vehicles still stuck on the Barkly Pass and those will be retrieved when conditions improve.
There were no casualties or injuries linked to the stuck vehicles.
