Sir Lowry’s Pass Truck Arrestor Bed
Completed in August 2018, the R11 million truck arrestor bed and 850m slipway at the bottom of Sir Lowry’s Pass on the N2 is an important piece of road safety infrastructure.
Built for the Western Cape Government, the facility provides a safe run-off area for heavy vehicles experiencing brake failure while descending the pass.
A practical infrastructure solution designed to help save lives and keep one of the Western Cape’s key routes safer.
