This Saturday (December 2) will see the official launch by President Jacob Zuma of the new R1.3-billion Dumisani Makhaye Drive (Main Road 577) in Clermont, Durban.
It’s the biggest road infrastructure development in the country in five years, according to a statement from the Presidency.
The road was named after the late struggle hero, Dumisani Makhaye, and provides a strategic link between Duffs Road in KwaMashu to Dinkelman in New Germany. It will also serve as a new alternative route to the King Shaka International Airport for traffic from the Pietermaritzburg and Pinetown areas,
“This will ease traffic congestion on the N2/N3 interchange,” said a Presidency spokesperson.
