Questions about this street
Is Showground Avenue a one-way street?
This map data does not establish a single traffic direction for the Showground Avenue section shown in Cape Town. Recorded tags: One-way tag on 44% of the mapped length; 56% 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 Showground Avenue?
It shows the mapped section in this directory: 1.83 km of road lines in Cape Town. Other OSM ways named Showground Avenue lie against this outline in the snapshot road context. Shared nodes and levels are not verified, so continuity is not asserted. 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.
Why can one stop appear as several records?
OpenStreetMap can record a waiting platform, a station and the position where a vehicle stops as separate objects. This page lists passenger records once and keeps vehicle positions in the technical details. The records do not confirm routes, timetables or that a service operates.
