This has since forced authorities to close several major roads. Botswana Police Head of Traffic, Pilane Sedigi, confirmed the road closures to Mmegi Online stating that smaller vehicles are struggling to navigate the flooded roads.

“We have had to close multiple roads across Gaborone due to flooding. Block 9 bridges are already closed, The Gaborone/Kanye road along Block 9 may also be shut down soon. Molapo Crossing is completely closed off by the police and the Segoditshane Road along the Western Bypass is in very bad condition,” Sedigi said.
