By Road:

A collector road, adjacent and parallel to the N1 provides direct access from the freeway into the heart of Century City and sets a precedent for access convenience. Shoppers bound for Canal Walk Shopping Centre can drive over a steel bridge directly on to the upper levels of the shopping centre parking garage.

Alternative road access into the site is available from the Bosmansdam Road to the North, Sable Road (which also links to the N1 freeway) to the south and Ratanga Road to the West.

In addition, Century City is located in close proximity to both the N7 and M5 arterial roads putting it in easy access to both the West Coast and Southern Suburbs.
