Westville, Durban

SHOWING AREA PROFILE 10 OF 21

Westville at a glance

Approximately 15km inland from the Durban CBD is the ever expanding, commercial hub of Westville. Originating as a farm and named in honour of the first British lieutenant-governor of Natal, Martin West – Westville was established in 1847. Developing from a smallish settlement of German settlers the town soon grew and was proclaimed a municipality in 1956. Previously an independent borough, it now forms part of the eThekwini Metropolitan Municipality. Today Westville spans a total area of 30.76 km2 that is found between New Germany, Queensburgh and the Berea. 

One of Westville’s biggest drawing cards is its central location and easy access to neighbouring areas via main arterial routes.  Adding to its ease of access is the host of public transport options – simplifying the commuting process. Its centrality has made this town the ideal place for business premises – with several established office parks to be found.

Location 

Westville’s appeal as a thriving commercial centre is the convenient access it provides – allowing for easy commutes from neighbouring towns and suburbs. Served by three main roadways namely; King Cetshwayo Highway, N2 and N3 – Westville is also in close proximity to other arterial routes including the M19 and M7. Another contributor to the accessibility of Westville is the EB Cloete Interchange, better known as Spaghetti Junction; this interchange between the N2 and N3 has made it easier for hundreds of thousands of commuters and plays an important role in the desirability of Westville as a commercial node.
