Planning this lane
Southbound loads on the N1 are commonly Gauteng-manufactured goods, steel, machinery and imported containers released from Durban and railed or trucked to Johannesburg. Exporters use this lane to reach the Port of Cape Town for fruit, wine and general export cargo. Timing around port cut-offs is usually the binding constraint rather than the road itself.
