Why go

Its lettered sections and Mangosuthu Highway show how this extensive township is organised. Umlazi has its own schools, university and stadium, making it part of Durban’s everyday urban geography rather than a single sightseeing stop. The area deserves time only with a specific local purpose.

What to look for

  • Mangosuthu Highway connects many of Umlazi’s sections.
  • The township’s sections use letters, with some double-letter additions.

Useful to know

  • Arrange a specific local destination before travelling across Umlazi’s many sections.
