It is often forgotten that the N17 (Section 1) is intended to continue west from its present terminus with the M11 at Wemmer Pan Road, Johannesburg to Krugersdorp.This would make it the much needed second link between the East and West Rand (presently the link is via the N12/N3/M2 and Main Reef Road R41 Or Albertina Sisulu Road R24).
