The heavy rains over Gauteng have caused a bridge along Witkoppen Road in Johannesburg's northern suburbs to collapse.

The damaged bridge spans the Braamfontein Spruit, one of the major streams in Johannesburg.

The collapse occurred between Rivonia Road and Witkoppen road in Sunninghill earlier this morning. Witkoppen Road has been blocked off as a result and will remain closed to traffic for some time to come.
