The M54 is a short metropolitan route in the City of Johannesburg, South Africa that connects Wynberg with Modderfontein via Alexandra. [1] [2]

Route

The M54 begins at a junction with the M40 route (Arkwright Avenue; 2nd Street) in Wynberg. It heads eastwards as Arkwright Avenue, then as Wynberg Road, to form the southern boundary of the Alexandra township (separating it from Kew). It then becomes London Road, crossing the Jukskei River and passing through the East Bank to reach an intersection with the N3 highway (Johannesburg Eastern Bypass) south-west of Linbro Park. From the N3 interchange, it heads east-south-east as Peace Street, separating Linbro Park in the north from Longmeadow Business Estate in the south, to reach its end at a junction with the R25 route (Modderfontein Road) just south of Lakeside (Modderfontein) and north of Greenstone Hill.

The N3 Eastern Bypass is a section of the Johannesburg Ring Road that forms a beltway around the city of Johannesburg, South Africa, as part of the N3. The first section of the freeway opened in 1971, from Buccleuch to the interchange with Main Reef Road in Germiston. This is one reason why Germiston is listed as the southbound destination of this route, from the Buccleuch to Geldenhuys Interchanges, rather than to the Elands Interchange south of Germiston. The remaining section from Main Reed Road to Black Reef Road, which included the construction of the Geldenhuys Interchange, was opened in 1977, linking the Eastern Bypass with the N3 freeway to Heidelberg. The interchange at Main Reef Road was removed.
