R512's southern terminus[edit]

Well, I took a look at "Google Earth" yesterday, specifically at the "Malibongwe Drive & Republic Road" junction & there were road signs indicating that "Malibongwe Drive" is designated as the R512 there. That makes me wonder why "this article" states that the N1 Western Bypass interchange is the "southern terminus" of the "R512" route number.

Then, I took a look at the document we have been citing (the "South African Numbered Route Description & Destination Analysis") & even there, it says that the remaining section of "Malibongwe Drive" from the N1 interchange to the M20 junction in Linden is part of the R512.

So, is it safe to say from both these sources (Road Imagery from Google Earth & Route Description from the cited document) that the R512 indeed continues further south from the N1 Western Bypass Interchange? GeographicAccountant (talk) 01:17, 18 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I have edited the article in this regard with the Information given. Indeed, the remaining section of Malibongwe Drive from the N1 Interchange southwards to Linden is part of the R512! GeographicAccountant (talk) 14:41, 6 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
