Wall Map · 20th edition · est. 1958
The Businessman's Wall Map of South Africa covers the country at 1:1 000 000 on a sheet 2.65 metres wide — the closest-in of the national sheets, with city insets.
The road network is graded from freeways and national routes through main roads to secondary roads, with tarred, untarred and under-construction sections distinguished and route markers given. Distances in kilometres are printed between towns and separately along the national roads, toll roads are marked, and railways with their stations are drawn. Provincial and international borders are shown, along with border control posts, major airports and airfields.
Settlements are graded five ways below capital and city — major town, secondary town, satellite town, other town and settlement. Grain silos are marked individually, national parks and nature reserves are shown, and the city insets carry their own toll plazas.
- Agriculture, grain and bulk haulage
- Grain silos are marked individually alongside the road and rail network and the distances between towns — a combination a general road map will not give you.
- Transport, freight and route planning
- Distances in kilometres are printed between towns and separately along the national roads, toll roads are marked, tarred sections are distinguished from untarred, and border control posts are shown.
- Sales and service territories
- The whole country at 1:1 000 000 with towns graded five ways below city level — close enough to allocate a territory town by town rather than region by region.
- Boardrooms and operations rooms
- At 2.65 metres wide this is the largest national sheet in the range, and the one to put up when a team needs to work off the same map.
- Not the right map if you need street detail
- At 1:1 000 000 this is a national sheet and does not show individual streets. For street level, see the city wall maps.
