The M6 is a short
M4 for travel between Cape Town CBD and Glencairn, with the M6 passing to the west of Table Mountain
.
Route
The M6 begins at a junction with the
Victoria & Alfred Waterfront and the Cape Town Stadium. Immediately after Green Point, the M6 reaches the West Coast (Atlantic) and turns southwards as Beach Road to follow the coast, passing through Sea Point and bypassing Table Mountain and its National Park
to the west.
In the southern part of Sea Point, at a roundabout, the M6 turns east to become Queens Road. It meets the
M62
again.
From Camps Bay, the M6 heads southwards for 10 kilometres to reach
M63. It resumes southwards, becoming Chapmans Peak Drive, to pass through the Chapman's Peak Hiking & Marine Trail, where a tollgate is situated.[6]
From the tollgate, the M6 heads southwards to
M4
(Main Road).
