The map
About this Etwatwa map poster
Etwatwa lies in the east of Ekurhuleni, the metropolitan municipality east of Johannesburg, and adjoins the older township of Daveyton near Benoni. From above it shows a strongly regular pattern: long rows of small residential plots arranged in tight blocks, crossed by a few main roads and bordered by open veld.
The township grew largely in the late twentieth century, and later extensions added new sections as housing programmes expanded. Its layout reflects this planned growth: wide collector roads and repeated street patterns, with schools, clinics and sports grounds appearing as larger open rectangles within the fine grain of housing.
An Etwatwa map poster turns that fine grain into a graphic image. In monochrome, the closely spaced streets form a textured field, the main roads cut through it with clear lines, and the open land around the township frames the whole. People from the area recognise this kind of map immediately, and newcomers find it striking.

Link to Daveyton
Etwatwa adjoins Daveyton, and the two townships read on the map as one continuous built-up area with slightly different street geometries.
Open veld edges
Grassland and open ground surround the township on several sides, giving the dense grid a clear, sharply defined outline.
