You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 44.202.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 21:04, 17 October 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

))The '''M13''' or '''King Cetshwayo Highway''' is a [[Metropolitan Routes in Durban|metropolitan route]] in the [[EThekwini Metropolitan Municipality|Ethekwini Metropolitan Municipality]] in the [[KwaZulu-Natal]] province of [[South Africa]]. For part of its route, it is a highway and it acts as an alternative route to the [[N3 (South Africa)|N3 Highway]] for travel between the suburbs closer to the [[Durban]] CBD and the Outer West Suburbs ([[Assagay]]).

== Route ==

The route starts in the [[Durban]] Central Business District at an intersection with the [[M4 (Durban)|M4]]. For the first few kilometres of its length, it runs parallel to the [[N3 road (South Africa)|N3]] on both sides as King Ndinuzulu Road North and King Ndinuzulu Road South (formerly Berea Road; one-way-streets). At the Tollgate Bridge, it then turns to the south and passes westwards through [[Mayville, Durban|Mayville]] (where it is co-signed with the [[M10 (Durban)|M10]] for a few metres), before turning north and crossing under the N3 to pass through [[Sherwood, Durban|Sherwood]].

At 45th Cutting, the route becomes a dual-carriageway freeway for the rest of its length. The route passes over the [[N2 road (South Africa)|N2 Highway]] ([[Durban Outer Ring Road]]) westwards as a flyover and passes through [[Westville, KwaZulu-Natal|Westville]] and [[Cowies Hill]]. The route then briefly touches the N3 at the Paradise Valley interchange (eastbound only) (motorists can drive from the N3 west onto the M13 west and from the M13 east onto the N3 east), before passing west-north-west through [[Pinetown]].

After Pinetown, the route goes up [[Fields Hill]], a 3&nbsp;km 1:15 gradient (this section is notorious for heavy vehicle accidents that can close an entire carriageway of the road<ref>((Cite web |title=Heavy vehicles should be restricted on M13 - Field`s Hill Task Team - DOCUMENTS ((!)) Politicsweb |url=https://www.politicsweb.co.za/documents/heavy-vehicles-should-be-restricted-on-m13--fields |access-date=2022-11-30 |website=www.politicsweb.co.za |language=en))</ref><ref>((Cite web |last=Rondganger |first=Lee |title=Field’s Hill: Report warned of tragedy |url=https://www.iol.co.za/news/south-africa/kwazulu-natal/fields-hill-report-warned-of-tragedy-1575147 |access-date=2022-11-30 |website=www.iol.co.za |language=en))</ref><ref>((Cite web |title='MEC was warned about Pinetown accident' - DA ((!)) eNCA |url=https://www.enca.com/south-africa/mec-was-warned-about-pinetown-accident-da |access-date=2022-11-30 |website=www.enca.com |language=en))</ref>). The route then enters the [[Upper Highway Area]],<ref>((Cite web |title=Upper Highway ((!)) KZN Durban ((!)) Accommodation ((!)) Dining Out ((!)) Family ((!)) Whats On ((!)) Shopping ((!)) Health and Beauty ((!)) Garden and Home ((!)) Family Activities |url=https://kzndurban.co.za/upper-highway/ |access-date=2022-07-03 |website=KZN Durban ((!))  Accommodation ((!)) Dining Out ((!)) Family ((!)) Whats On ((!)) Shopping ((!)) Health and Beauty ((!)) Garden and Home ((!)) Family Activities |language=en-ZA))</ref> passing westwards through [[Kloof]] and [[Gillitts]], before the [[R103 (South Africa)|R103]] diverges, providing access to [[Hillcrest, KwaZulu-Natal|Hillcrest]]. The route then passes south of Hillcrest and through [[Assagay]] before merging with the [[N3 (South Africa)|N3 freeway]] (westbound only) at the Key Ridge Interchange, where it ends.

The route is roughly 35&nbsp;km long.

== Significance ==

The M13 is the main thoroughfare to Durban for residents of the nearby towns of Westville, Pinetown, Kloof, Gillitts and Hillcrest.

The M13 between the Paradise Valley interchange and its termination at the N3 used to be part of the N3 route until 1986, when the N3 was re-routed to pass south of Pinetown, [[Westmead, KwaZulu-Natal|Westmead]] and [[Winston Park, KwaZulu-Natal|Winston Park]]. The M13 remains an alternative route to the N3, and is commonly used by motorists wishing to avoid the Mariannhill Toll Plaza, located on the N3 outside Westmead.
