The cams belong to Metro Police, there are 1 every km on the N1, N2 from Cape Town to Paarl and Strand and on the R300, there are only a few that can be seen on the net

Hi @tony, it’s been like this for a while and I can’t seem to find where MTN have positioned their images now :/

Agreed, the N1 is incredibly busy and we definitely need more cameras along the road – MTN would be the people to talk to..

but where are traffic cams on the N1?? The N1 is the second busiest highway in SA after Jhb-Pretoria.

Ah for sure, but remember, there are millions of services on the Internet, keeping up with all of them is impossible so give the poor people a break ;)

a lot of the comments say its about time this was available, and they were wondering when sa would catch up. Mtn was the first company in the world to provide traffic cams on mobile phones and it was done years ago

That’s correct Lipska, what are you trying to say?

This service has been around since 2001 on MTN ;-)
