The Tshwane Metro Police Department (TMPD) has urged motorists to expect significant traffic disruptions across Pretoria on June 30 as a planned march targeting undocumented foreign nationals proceeds through the city.

The Tshwane Metro Police Department (TMPD) has warned motorists to brace for major traffic disruptions across the city on June 30 as a march calling for all undocumented foreign nationals to leave the country is set to take place.

The protest, targeting illegal foreign nationals, is expected to result in major traffic congestion in Pretoria during demonstrations planned for Tuesday, during which protesters will call for undocumented foreign nationals to leave South Africa.

More than 20 anti-migrant organisations and civil society groups, including the controversial March and March movement, are behind the demonstrations.

Speaking at a media briefing in Midrand on Wednesday, organisers pledged the protests would be peaceful and would not result in violence, looting or loss of life.
