By GhanaSummary NewsroomSouth Africa

Heavy ​rainfall, strong winds and ​flooding on May 11 and 12 ⁠caused extensive damage to ​railway infrastructure, resulting in sections of ​the line being closed for more than two months, the Transnet Rail ​Infrastructure Manager (TRIM) said in a ​statement.

State-owned logistics operator Transnet said on Friday ​it has completed the restoration ‌of the Cape Mainline rail link following storm damage in May.

The Cape Mainline is a strategic mixed-freight ‌corridor ⁠linking Cape Town with South Africa’s inland rail network.
