Lower-risk driving routes in Mossel Bay

Mossel Bay is the first Garden Route town on the map. Coverage is the whole municipality rather than just the town: from Gouritsmond in the west, through Mossel Bay itself and the N2, to Great Brak River in the east and Herbertsdale inland. Every part of it has been rated against the police stations that actually serve it.

Of the 54 rated areas in Mossel Bay, these are the ones at the highest of the four risk levels, for each of the three times of day. Every figure comes straight from the live database, read on 3 November 2026. The lowest band means an area was checked and carries no routing penalty, which is different from an area we have no data for. A rating describes an area's history of vehicle crime, not what is happening on a street right now: lower risk is not no risk.

What to know on these roads

  1. 01

    The N2 runs across the top of the town and carries most of the through-traffic on the Garden Route. It is rated along its whole length here, separately for each time of day.

  2. 02

    The R328 toward Oudtshoorn and the coastal roads to the Point, Hartenbos and Great Brak River are all mapped.

  3. 03

    Holiday traffic changes the picture. A road that is quiet in winter is busy and full of unfamiliar drivers in December, so the map covers the roads visitors use as well as the ones locals do.

Tsamaya rates roads and routes. It does not publish a list of neighbourhoods, and the app never labels a place for anyone other than the driver about to pass through it.

Questions

Mossel Bay, asked

Yes. The mapped area is the full municipality, so Hartenbos, Little Brak, Great Brak River and Gouritsmond are all inside it.

It is mapped end to end and rated for each time of day. It is not given a blanket protective rating the way the big-city freeways are, because it passes close to town for part of its length.
