G20 Leaders Summit – Taggers, What You Need to Know:

✈️ Flights – all systems go!
No delays expected. Planes are on time, pilots are calm, baggage is… well, baggage.
Road Access Changes from 18 November 2025:
Cargo Road – closed completely (unless you’re heading to SAA Cargo via Voortrekker Road).
Arrivals Road closed – all drop-off & pick-up via Parkade 2 North & South.
Short-term parking (Piazza) – closed. Not even a quick “I’ll just be 2 minutes” allowed.
For live updates: check the ACSA App or their socials.

Then, this weekend: A coordinated joint operation will take place from November 22-23, resulting in temporary road closures, lane restrictions and intermittent disruptions across key routes, according to The Road Traffic Management Corporation. The metropolitan areas of Johannesburg, Tshwane and Ekurhuleni will be affected.

Top Tips for Gautengers Braving the G20 Storm
➡️ Leave earlier than usual… then add 15 more mins.
Because Google Maps doesn’t account for ministerial convoys.
➡️ Pack snacks & patience.
You’ll need both. Possibly also a playlist titled ‘Life is a Highway’.
➡️ Rethink your route.
If you normally cut through the airport zone “just for fun”, don’t.
➡️ Opt for virtual meetings where possible.
Nobody needs Teams fatigue and road rage in the same day.
➡️ Travel with purpose – and parking money.
Parkade 2 is your new best friend. Accept it.
➡️ Stay informed, stay flexible and keep the coffee flowing.
