the fat interchange planned for Koeberg/M5


like any good capetonian, i'm the first to rattle off a long list of reasons as to why the mother city kicks joburg's ass 10-love. on this list will be the usual suspect crime and of course, the predictable, nightmarish traffic ... and like any good capetonian, i'll loyally omit the fact that in recent years, cape town has been receiving an ever-increasing dose of the latter.
