The M12 is a long metropolitan route in the City of Cape Town, South Africa.[1][2] It connects Burgundy Estate with Stellenbosch via Parow, Elsie's River and Kuils River.[3][4]
Route
The M12 begins at a junction with the
M8 (Bosmansdam Road) before separating the Monte Vista and Panorama suburbs and flying over the N1 highway. Just after crossing the N1, it separates the Goodwood and Parow suburbs and reaches a junction with the R102
(Voortrekker Road).
From the R102 junction, the M12 continues southwards through
M10 (Robert Sobukwe Road) north of Cape Town International Airport, where it turns to the east as Stellenbosch Arterial road. It passes through the Belhar suburb before meeting and crossing the R300 freeway (Kuils River Freeway) and passing through the southern part of Kuils River, where it forms another junction with the R102 (Van Riebeeck Road). The M12 continues eastwards as Polkadraai Road, leaving the City of Cape Town and entering the Stellenbosch Local Municipality, to reach its end at a junction with the R310 (Baden Powell Drive; Adam Tas Road) about 4 kilometres west of the Stellenbosch
town centre.
