PROJECTS
Upgrade N2 KwaMashu Interchange Section 25
The capacity improvement entails the addition of lanes over the project length, mainly in the median. This will result in there being 5 lanes in both directions between the start of the project and the Mount Edgecombe Interchange and thereafter 4 lanes up to the eMdloti Interchange. The northbound off-ramp to the Mount Edgecombe interchange requires a three lane facility and this ramp development has been designed as an auxillary ramp adjacent to the main carriageway, separated by a median barrier.
