M5 Road (Cape Town) - Koeberg Interchange Elevated Free Way Upgrade

Koeberg Interchange Elevated Free Way Upgrade

In 2008, work began to upgrade the Koeberg interchange with elevated free ways joining the M5 and the N1. The elevated free way from the N1 onto the M5 was completed in June 2010 in time for the 2010 FIFA World Cup, while the other direction was completed in November 2011.

At the end of 2011, Google maps street view of this interchange showed the progress of the work on the interchange in stages by combining images over time and connecting them underneath existing bridges.

This enables the viewer to experience a form of virtual reality during multiple points in the construction phase. Latitude and Longitude marker is: -33.91768, 18.48082 Map

Famous quotes containing the words interchange, elevated and/or free:

    The press and politicians. A delicate relationship. Too close, and danger ensues. Too far apart and democracy itself cannot function without the essential exchange of information. Creative leaks, a discreet lunch, interchange in the Lobby, the art of the unattributable telephone call, late at night.
    Howard Brenton (b. 1942)

    Whoever sincerely believes that elevated and distant goals are as little use to man as a cow, that “all of our problems” come from such goals, is left to eat, drink, sleep, or, when he gets sick of that, to run up to a chest and smash his forehead on its corner.
    Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)

    The real American type can never be a ballet dancer. The legs are too long, the body too supple and the spirit too free for this school of affected grace and toe walking.
    Isadora Duncan (1878–1927)
