Limpopo: local news, practical updates and stories that matter

Looking for reliable news about Limpopo? This tag page collects every story we publish about the province — from Polokwane council decisions to farming news in Tzaneen, mining updates in Phalaborwa, and community events across Vhembe and Mopani. Use it to stay on top of what affects daily life, work and travel in the region.

What we cover in Limpopo

We focus on clear, useful reporting. Expect coverage of local government and service delivery (water, roads, sanitation), business and jobs (mining activity, farms and agribusiness), public safety and crime, education, and health updates. You’ll also find sports results, community stories and tourism notes for people heading to the Kruger border or safari towns.

For example, if a municipality announces a new water-supply plan or a farmer’s cooperative in Tzaneen opens export routes for avocados and citrus, we’ll explain what it means for workers, buyers and local residents. If a mine in Phalaborwa changes its shift patterns or a school in Thohoyandou gets funding, we’ll report the facts, the timeline, and who to contact for more info.

How to use this page

Start by scanning the newest stories at the top. Each headline links to the full article with details, quotes and practical next steps. Want only politics or only business? Use the site search or related tags listed under each article to narrow results. Bookmark this page to check the latest at a glance, and follow our social channels for real-time alerts.

Need travel or safety tips? Look for posts flagged with practical advice — these give short checklists, contact numbers, and travel times when available. For instance, our transport updates mention expected delays, alternative routes and which municipal office to contact for road problems. That helps you decide whether to change plans or report an issue.

Have local news to share? Send photos, a short note and a contact number. We verify before publishing but fast, clear tips help us cover events as they happen. If you’re a local official or business, email our newsroom for press releases and to request a follow-up piece that explains how a change will affect residents.

Want deeper reads? Look for analysis pieces that link provincial issues to national policy — like how power cuts affect farms or how a new trade route could change jobs in Limpopo towns. These explain likely outcomes, not just the headlines.
