What are transportation options and challenges in Polokwane, Limpopo?

A person moving into the Polokwane city must expect to find moderate traffic, friendly faces and a small town with a beautiful landscape. There isn’t much if any high rise buildings here. When coming into the city, from whichever hometown, they should be open minded. You just might like it. It too does have it’s fair share of ups and downs, much like any other.

Polokwane is a big city, surrounded by beautiful residential places such as Florah park, Westernbeg and Bendor. It also has great schools for primary and high school kids. We have a stadium in which children and all other people play sports. There is also an airport to make traveling easier.

The climate here is over the charts, days are very hot and nights are warm. There’s always traffic on the roads and many trucks pass here everyday, there are always car accidents. The people are very friendly and welcoming, the nightlife is wild, we even call each other “mata”.

Polokwane is a very safe city. It is surrounded by mountains. There are different mode of transport that people use to go to the city from areas outside the city. When traveling from Johannesburg, there is a huge traffic circle where Polokwane started. Many government offices in Limpopo province are in Polokwane.

I’m from a small area just outside Polokwane. The area is made of townhouses. We are a loving neighborhood, we treat each other like family. When it comes to security, the area is well protected as we having patrolling cars and a police station. We also have a sports ground for soccer and rugby.
