Route

[edit]

Its north-western terminus is the N3 in Umlaas Road near Camperdown, KwaZulu-Natal. It initially heads south, crossing the R103. It then passes just west of Hammarsdale and, after 15 kilometres, it intersects with the R624's eastern terminus, and heads south-east. It proceeds to meet the western terminus of the M30 at Umbumbulu. It proceeds south-east to Kingsburgh on the South Coast, where it crosses the N2 highway and ends just after at a junction with the R102.[1]
