Vehicles and driving in Worcester

Worcester is the hub of the Breede River valley, on the N1 between the Huguenot Tunnel and the Hex River Pass. Long-haul trucks heading to and from Johannesburg pass through constantly, and many stop for alternator, starter or lighting repairs before tackling the Karoo. The valley's vineyards, deciduous fruit orchards and wine cellars rely on farm bakkies, tractors and cold-chain trucks that cannot afford downtime during harvest. Summers in the valley are very hot, which shortens battery life, while frosty winter mornings expose weak batteries. Local taxis and buses linking Worcester to the surrounding towns also need regular electrical maintenance.
