Route

The M19 begins at the intersection with the M4 in South End and heads in a south-westerly direction as Walmer Boulevard. It passes through South End as its main road and enters Walmer as Heugh Road. It passes through Greenshields Park before intersecting with the M12 (17th Avenue) and it changes its name to Buffelsfontein Road. It then passes through the suburbs of Broadwood, Salisbury Park, Mount Pleasant, Lovemore Heights before changing its name to Seaview Road at an intersection with Old Seaview Road.

It curves southwards and westwards again leaving Port Elizabeth and its built up area and going through Lovemore Park. After 11 kilometers it reaches the coast and enters the small coastal town of Seaview. It then diverts westwards from the intersection with the M15 and becomes Elizabeth Road. It goes through Clarendon Marine and Beachview and becomes Beachview Divisional Road. It turns in a northeasterly direction away from the coast and goes through Maitlands area before ending at the intersection with De Stades Road (to Greenbushes and Colleen Glen).[1][2][3][4]

gollark: It's somewhat important to incentivize people to make things which aren't conveniently sellable physical objects.
gollark: Plants should really have solar-powered microcontrollers with cellular/satellite links so they can receive emails.
gollark: I mean, natural ones yes, artificially designed ones I'm fine with. Although any sufficiently short one is probably going to turn up in some organism somewhere through sheer chance, even if it's not doing the same thing.
gollark: I think intellectual property definitely needs reduction. Copyright lasts waaaaay too long, patent weirdness basically stopped 3D printer development for ages, and trademarking-or-whatever "sky" is ridiculous. Also, you can patent some software stuff you probably shouldn't be able to.
