The M11 begins in the suburb of
Bassonia (east of
Glenvista) in
Johannesburg South, at a junction with the
M95 Bellairs Road. It heads north through Bassonia as Comaro Street to reach a junction with the
N12 highway (
Johannesburg Southern Bypass). Here the
M16 1st Avenue in Houghton intersects this route from the west at a t-junction and is briefly co-signed. The route then enters the suburb of
Orange Grove passing the new Victory Theatre (2007). Midway through Orange Grove, the road bends northwards and the M16 splits off to the east as 8th Street. The M11 passes through
Orchards and is intersected by the
R25 and then passes
Sydenham and smaller suburbs of
Maryvale,
Forbesdale,
Cheltondale,
Rouxville and
Hawkins Estate. The road then crosses the
M20 at Atholl Road in the suburbs of
Highlands North and
Waverley. The road later crosses the
M30 Corlett Drive in
Bramley before reaching, a short distance later, the
M40 Artwright Avenue in the light industrial suburb of
Wynberg with the old township of
Alexandra close by (to the east). The road continues north, now as the Pretoria Main Road, reaching the
M60 Marlboro Drive intersection where the
M1 De Villiers Graaff motorway can be accessed. Crossing the intersection, the M11 continues north parallel to the M1 on the left as the Eastern Service Road before reaching its end at an intersection with the
R55 Woodmead Drive at Woodlands, near
Woodmead. The road continues northwards as the
R101 Old Pretoria Road to
Midrand. ==References==
