Belfast Traffic Department Contact Details
To reach the Belfast traffic department, call the Emakhazeni Local Municipality switchboard on 013 253 7600, which is also the telephone number for the Community Services directorate that manages traffic services. Belfast, officially renamed eMakhazeni, is the seat of Emakhazeni Local Municipality in the Nkangala region of Mpumalanga.
The municipality does not publish a separate number for its licensing department or a dedicated Belfast driving licence testing centre, so calls go through the switchboard. Belfast falls under Emakhazeni, not Steve Tshwete (Middelburg) municipality. For other public bodies, see the government hub.
