WATCH: Heavy rains causing havoc inside Hluhluwe-Imfolozi Park
Updated | By Nushera Soodyal
As heavy rains continue to lash parts of the province, Ezemvelo KZN Wildlife says roads have been flooded inside the Hluhluwe-Imfolozi Park.
The Amanzamnyama stream is overflowing with the Black iMfolozi and Hluhluwe bridges also submerged.
Floodwaters are blocking access to two resorts, Mpila and Hiltop Resorts, through the Nyalazi Gate.
Ezemvelo has issued notices to visitors, urging them to stay away from some entrance points.
It says those travelling to Mpila must use the Cengeni Gate, whilst those going to Hiltop must use the Memorial Gate.
The torrential downpours in KZN earlier this week claimed the lives of six people, including a three-month-old baby in the Umkhanyakude, King Cetshwayo, Umzinyathi and Amajuba districts.
Hundred of homes were damaged or washed away.
Disaster management official says many roads and bridges in the province were also affected.
