Street atlas
Herschel Walk is a mapped street in Cape Town. The represented road geometry totals about 1,186 m. Nearby mapped records include education, parks & green spaces, sport & fitness.
Counts named place and passenger transport records around one selected point on the street. The lists below the map measure along the whole mapped section instead, so their totals differ.
Straight-line radius from the selected point. Area markers use an interior point, not an entrance.
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.

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

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.

The mapped section is in Cape Town, Western Cape, South Africa.
A street-wide delivery postcode has not been independently verified in the current dataset.
Mapped topology: Newlands Road.
Page lists measure a straight line from the nearest part of the whole mapped geometry: 500 m for places and 1 km for passenger transport. The interactive map measures from one selected point, so its counts differ. Neither is a walking distance.
