Unfinished freeway

The freeway off ramp on Settlers Freeway which goes nowhere.  In yesterday's post on the Green Mosque I mentioned that the mosque was due to be demolished according to the Groups Areas Act and that they wanted a freeway off ramp to run across the land.  This is how close they got to doing it.

  2. Freeways can sure destroy cities! I think they should all be vaporized.

  3. LOL - this used to be a running joke for me and my friends as students - the Road to Nowhere! Was no joke when they wanted to put the Baakens River Parkway through the city#s greenbelt though - can you imagine if instead of the Bushbuck Trail we had another freeway?! Those freeways were the worst thing PE ever did (with the possible exception of the tank farm!) - cutting off our city from the seafront in the ugliest way possible.
