N12 Southern Bypass (South Africa) → N12 Southern Bypass (Johannesburg) – There is more than one "N12 Southern Bypass" in South Africa, including the section in Witbank (eMalahleni) and the "Moroka Bypass" section in-between Soweto and Lenasia; So, mentioning "South Africa" for a road found only in the City of Johannesburg is not correct.

- Agree. Makes sense. M roads underwent a similar change. Conlinp (talk) 08:54, 10 September 2022 (UTC)
Article Title
editI think we should remove the "South Africa" Title and change the wording to "Johannesburg" instead! You'll notice that even the N12 section in Witbank (eMalahleni) qualifies to be called a "Southern Bypass". So, I think the "N12 Southern Bypass (South Africa)" Title should be changed to "N12 Southern Bypass (Johannesburg)", as it is better to mention the exact region being bypassed and not the nation!
