Inanda Opening and closing times

[pjjdp]

Hi Guys,

What's up with the times? It's 6 to 6. I was there @ 5 on Sunday, including about 6 other cars, but was only allowed in @ 6.

The gateguard says he gets lots of complaints.

I sent an e-mail to Msinsi and to the dam on Monday. Apparently my e-mail was forwarded to Gerald Bruton. Still no word.

Not sure haven't been there for ages, but I think it's 6 in the summer and 7 in the winter - opening times. Do you go with a boat? Otherwise, you take a left turn as you get to that small petrol station/spaza shop...you'll find quite a few fishing places along the road. Not sure how's the safety, I had no problems in the past.

It's always been 5 in summer and 6 in winter. I know, been there many many times.

Their Website also states

06h00 - 18h00 April to September
05h00 - 19h00 October to March

Ah, ok cool, then go to the office or call the management?

E-Mail from Gerald received.

"I am aware that the Msinsi Web page has not been changed in respect of the opening times and have requested our Marketing Department to do the necessary changes.

I’m afraid to say that the opening & closing times have changed to 06h00 to 18h00 for day visitors as this falls within our revised management times of our gate staff.

On looking up the records, it was found that opening up one hour earlier was not justifiable for the number of customers coming down to the dam between 05h00 to 06h00. Our staff work a compressed 12 hour shift and cannot work any longer hours. We have had to look at our running costs and cut back on staff. Taking all this in consideration, it was decided that the gate opening times had to coincide with the gate attendant shift time.

I apologise for any inconvenience caused.

Regards

Gerry Bruton"

Hi guys, I sent an e-mail to Gerald again asking him to consider opening from 05:00 to 18:00 during the holidays only.

Or at least allow wild card holders to enter from 05:00.

What do you guys think?

Regards

I have some very good news. Gerry came back to me, the gate will open from 05:00. Not sure yet if it's only for the holiday or back to normal operating times.
