The Bloemfontein Ring Road, also known as The Bloemfontein bypass is a halfway ring road that circles the city of Bloemfontein, South Africa.[2] It is part of the N1 National Route.

Route[edit]

The Bloemfontein ring road begins north of Bloemfontein, at an interchange with the R30 (northbound only). The route heads south-west, then south, around Bloemfontein, first meeting the R700 before meeting the R64 and N8 just west of Bloemfontein Central.[3][4]

The N8 joins the bypass for 3km up to the next off-ramp, where it becomes the road westwards towards Kimberley. The ring road continues South, meeting the R706, to reach an interchange with the N6, where it ends.[1][5]
