Street atlas
Mapped section in Cape Town, Western Cape. Nearest mapped place in the City of Cape Town OSM area: The Crest, 1,489 m from the selected point.
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.
For Vatican Street in Cape Town, the road lines shown here total 1.48 km.
Within 500 m of these lines, the snapshot contains 12 named place records, including 6 in shops & services and 2 in education.
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.
No road connections have been verified for this section in the current sample.
Shortest distance between mapped geometries, not a walking distance.
This is an OpenStreetMap road classification, not a statement about land use.

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.
Lengths refer to the represented road lines, not surveyed road or pavement lengths.
This map data does not establish a single traffic direction for the Vatican Street section shown in Cape Town. Recorded tags: One-way tag on 43% of the mapped length; 57% 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.
It shows the mapped section in this directory: 1.48 km of road lines in Cape Town. The street may continue beyond this mapped section. No completeness is claimed. Line length is not a surveyed street length.
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.
