High way or the low way?

I have been watching the progress of the road works at the Koeberg road interchange. It has fascinated me to try and predict (based on the progress made, where the various new paths will go, where they will lead from and where they will join onto their target.

The other day I lost patience with the guess-work and googled for plans or artists impressions, anything that would give me a further clue as to what the roadway would look like when it is done.

I found these (and many more) pictures in this thread on a this forum.

I think that is pretty cool :)

    it looks good, but I am still not convinced – the bottle neck will just shift back up the M5.
    When will they finish by?

      I wish I knew when they will finish, but as for the bottleneck it looks like they are upping the intersection from 1 to two much more direct lanes (not curvy S-bends and lane changes). Hopefully that will promote a more free flowing transition (I’m sure they have done all the required simulations, at least I hope they have).

        “required simulations” hah – do u know where they got the current messed up setup from? the US (left hand drive) that or from a Spaghetti Monster Anonymous meeting, ha ha ha
