William Nicol Drive to be renamed after Mama Winnie
3 October 2018
William Nicol Drive has been earmarked to be renamed Winnie Madikizela-Mandela Drive.
This was announced by Gauteng MEC for transport Ismail Vadi during the launch of the October Transport Month in Kliptown on Monday.
Madikizela-Mandela died on April 2 this year.
"We have noted that the City of Johannesburg had resolved last Thursday that William Nicol Drive be renamed Winnie Madikezela-Mandela Drive and the Emfuleni council has recommended that the R82 be named in honour of Duma Nokwe," said Vadi.
