A fast but heavy commute on the busiest truck route in the country, with one toll plaza and a bottleneck at the Durban end.
This guide was written for Pietermaritzburg to Durban. The same roads apply on your trip, but read exits, merges and lane tips the other way round.

Know whether you need the N2 north, the N2 south or the N3 into town before you reach EB Cloete.
Where the N2 and N3 meet in Westville. Heavy, slow traffic at peak and roadworks during the upgrade.
The M13 leaves the N3 near Assagay and runs through Hillcrest and Kloof. It avoids the toll but goes down Fields Hill.
Mainline plaza near Pinetown. Many commuters use the M13 from Key Ridge to avoid it, but Fields Hill is steep.
Steep downhill sections towards Hammarsdale and Harrison Flats. Trucks brake hard; leave plenty of room.
Mist settles in the valleys around Camperdown and Cato Ridge. Lights on, speed down, bigger gap.
The N3 is the main freight route to the port. Expect slow trucks on every climb; overtake only in the right lane.
Passengers only, or once you've stopped. Never while driving.
A tap posts the hazard and road. To add the lane, how bad it is or a tip, use "Add a detailed report" further down.
Your location is only used when you tap a button that asks for it. Reports show it rounded to about 100 m, never your exact spot. You can always type the road instead.
