The M41 is a short metropolitan route in Boksburg, South Africa. [1] [2] It is a very short route connecting Jet Park with Boksburg North. [3]
The M41 begins in Jet Park, in the far northern part of Boksburg (south of Kempton Park), at a T-junction with the M57 road (Pretoria Road). It begins by going eastwards to cross the R21 highway and reach a T-junction with Jones Road south of O. R. Tambo International Airport, near the South African Airways headquarters.
The M41 becomes Jones Road southwards to enter the Bartlett suburb of Boksburg. In Bartlett, it turns east, then south as Taijaard Road, then east as Yaldwyn Road, then south as Rondebult Road, to cross the N12 highway. It then reaches a junction with the M44 road (North Rand Road) and bypasses East Rand Mall to the east. It ends shortly thereafter at another junction with the R21 road (Rietfontein Road) in the suburb of Boksburg North.
The R21 is a major north–south provincial route in eastern Gauteng Province, South Africa. Built in the early 1970s, it remains one of two freeways linking Pretoria with Johannesburg, via the R24. As the eastern of the two freeways, it links the Pretoria city centre with OR Tambo International Airport, the N12 freeway, and Boksburg. Between the Solomon Mahlangu Drive on-ramp in Monument Park, Pretoria, and the N12 in Boksburg, the R21 is an 8 lane highway and motorway (freeway), with 4 lanes in each direction. It has off-ramps leading to Irene, Olifantsfontein, Benoni, and Kempton Park, including a partial offramp to Atlas Road. The route intersects the N1 Highway near Centurion, the R24 near the airport, the N12 and N17 in Boksburg, and the N3 near Vosloorus on the East Rand, where it ends. The section from the N12 to the N3 is not a freeway. As early as the 1970s there were proposals to extend the R21 freeway further south and the freeway may be linked with the current eastern terminus of the M2 in Germiston in future.
