Distances are measured in a straight line from the nearest part of the street. Places may be near different sections. Areas use an interior point, not an entrance. These are source records, not unique venues or walking distances. Activity is not corroborated: records come from the September 2026 map snapshot, and an object's edit date does not confirm that a venue operates.

The road profile

Mapped road classification
Unclassified road on all mapped lines

This is an OpenStreetMap road classification, not a statement about land use.

Tag details and coverage
  • highway
    • highway=unclassified · 6 segments · 1,006 m

    Recorded on 6 of 6 mapped segments; 0 without this tag.

    Tag coverage by geometry length: 1,006 m of 1,006 m (100.0%). Unknown: 0 m (0.0%).

Lengths refer to the represented road lines, not surveyed road or pavement lengths.

Road surface
Asphalt 63% · Paved 37%

Values vary along the section.

Tag details and coverage
  • surface
    • surface=asphalt · 3 segments · 632 m
    • surface=paved · 3 segments · 373 m

    Tag coverage by geometry length: 1,006 m of 1,006 m (100.0%). Unknown: 0 m (0.0%).

Lengths refer to the represented road lines, not surveyed road or pavement lengths.

Traffic direction
One-way tag on 31% of the mapped length; 69% not recorded

Tags describe individual mapped segments. They do not establish one traffic direction for the whole street: separate carriageways can be mapped as separate one-way lines, and untagged lines are unknown, not two-way.

Tag details and coverage
  • oneway
    • oneway=yes · 2 segments · 311 m

    Recorded on 2 of 6 mapped segments; 4 without this tag.

    Tag coverage by geometry length: 311 m of 1,006 m (30.9%). Unknown: 695 m (69.1%).

Tag details and coverage
  • sidewalk

    No value in the source.

    Recorded on 0 of 6 mapped segments; 6 without this tag.

    Tag coverage by geometry length: 0 m of 1,006 m (0.0%). Unknown: 1,006 m (100.0%).

Values apply to their individual tagged segments and sides. Left and right follow the direction of each individual source way; they are not a single orientation for the whole street. An explicit no means no pavement on the tagged segment or side; a missing tag is unknown, and separate means a pavement mapped independently.

Lengths refer to the represented road lines, not surveyed road or pavement lengths.

Questions about this street

Is College Lane a one-way street?

This map data does not establish a single traffic direction for the College Lane section shown in Johannesburg. Recorded tags: One-way tag on 31% of the mapped length; 69% not recorded. Tags describe individual mapped segments. They do not establish one traffic direction for the whole street: separate carriageways can be mapped as separate one-way lines, and untagged lines are unknown, not two-way. Check road signs on site before driving.

Does the map show the whole of College Lane?

It shows the mapped section in this directory: 1.01 km of road lines in Johannesburg. The street may continue beyond this mapped section. No completeness is claimed. Line length is not a surveyed street length.

Where are nearby distances measured from?

The lists on this page measure a straight line from the nearest part of the whole mapped section: places within 500 m and passenger transport within 1 km. Two listed places can therefore be near opposite ends. The interactive map instead counts records around one selected point on the street, including transport, so its totals differ. None of these are walking distances.
