The new bridge crosses the N1 highway south of the Allandale Road interchange and north of the Buccleuch interchange. It creates a direct link between Midrand and Waterfall City.
Over 6km of shops have been created inside the mall, which has around 6 500 parking bays, most of which are under cover.
Commenting on the mall’s development, Louis van der Watt, of Atterbury, said: “Developing a super-regional mall in the heart of the fastest growing urban node on the continent presented the opportunity to create an exciting modern landmark. As the heart of a growing city, its connectivity was a key consideration of Mall of Africa’s development.”
Van der Watt added that the mall’s exceptional scale, design, location, retail mix and access creates an exciting asset and places it at the forefront of retail developments.
