Motorists have been warned to expect traffic delays along routes in northern Johannesburg and Ekurhuleni.
The plane is being transported to the Fourways Mall ahead of the launch of KidZania.
KidZania is an interactive city made for children 2-14 that combines inspiration, fun and learning. It will be up to 7,500 sqm.
The Affected routes:
• Jones Road to Yaldwyn Road
• M39, Pretoria Main Road, Olifantsfontein Road and Summit Road to Mnandi Road in Knoppieslaagte 385-Jr, Centurion
• Mnandi Road and Riversands Boulevard to Erling Road in Midrand
• William Nicol Drive/R511 to Fourways Boulevard on Witkoppen, Sandton
As the operation to move the plane started this morning, people on Twitter have raised questions about the timing of the transferral.
