Street atlas
Nansen Street is a mapped street in Observatory, Cape Town. The represented road geometry totals about 86 m. The nearest mapped passenger transport record is Spencer (bus stop), approximately 290 m in a straight line from the nearest part of the street. Nearby mapped records include food & drink, shops & services, health services.
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.

4 of 4 categories have usable records.
Based on mapped records along this section. Sparse mapping can lower the score. How the score works
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.
Everyday-service highlights exclude 1 specialist record. The total and full list retain them.
17 passenger transport records. Mapped access points and facilities, not a count of unique stops, routes or service frequency.
Passenger records grouped by a source stop-area relation.
osm:relation:9811385. Members remain separate records; this grouping does not confirm routes or service operation.
4 source members are outside this named-point list.
Vehicle stopping positions describe where a vehicle stops, not necessarily where a passenger waits. The snapshot contains 40 transport objects in total; separate objects may belong to the same facility.

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 Observatory, Cape Town, Western Cape, South Africa.
Spencer is approximately 290 m in a straight line from the nearest part of the mapped street. This is a source record within the 1 km search radius, not a walking route or confirmation of operating services.
A street-wide delivery postcode has not been independently verified in the current dataset.
Mapped topology: Cole Street, Lower Rochester 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.
