- Once you get to White River, make a left at the first traffic light at the Toyota dealership into Danie Joubert Street.
- Turn right at the next traffic light into Tom Lawrence Street.
- Go straight on at the first traffic light and then turn left at the next one into Theo Kleynhans Street (marked on Google maps as the R40 and the R538)
