Heavy traffic expected in Limpopo as ZCC worshippers flock to Moria
Authorities in Limpopo have warned of heavy traffic congestion this weekend due to the annual Zion Christian Church pilgrimage in Moria. Over 4,000 buses are expected to transport worshippers from across Southern Africa.
Why it matters
Large-scale religious gatherings require significant traffic management and public safety coordination to prevent accidents and gridlock.
More than 4,000 buses from across the country, along with midi-buses and minibuses from neighbouring Botswana, Zimbabwe and Namibia, are expected in Limpopo this weekend for the Zion Christian Church (ZCC) pilgrimage in Moria.
The provincial department of transport and community safety has warned motorists to expect heavy traffic volumes in and around Moria as thousands of worshippers make their way to the pilgrimage.
The ZCC under Bishop Barnabas Lekganyane will be holding its annual concentration from Friday to Sunday.
