== Route ==
The M7 begins at an interchange with the [[N1 (South Africa)|N1 Highwayhighway]] and the southern terminus of the [[N7 (South Africa)|N7 Highwayhighway]] adjacent to [[Acacia Park, Cape Town|Acacia Park]]. The M7 begins by heading southwards as Jakes Gerwel Drive (formerly Vanguard Drive; renamed on 18 January 2015<ref name=":0" />), forming the western boundary of [[Goodwood, Western Cape|Goodwood]], to meet the [[R102 (South Africa)|R102]] (Voortrekker Road). It then separates [[Thornton, Cape Town|Thornton]] in the west from the GrandWest Casino in the east before meeting the [[M16 (Cape Town)|M16]] (Viking Way) and separating the two sides of the [[Epping, Cape Town|Epping Industrial Area]].
 
It then crosses the [[N2 (South Africa)|N2 Highwayhighway]] and proceeds south-south-east for 9 kilometres, through Vanguard, bypassing [[Manenberg]], through [[Philippi, Western Cape|Philippi]] (bypassing its [[Philippi Horticultural|Horticultural Area]]), to reach [[Mitchells Plain|Mitchell's Plain]], where it meets the southern terminus of the [[R300 (South Africa)|R300 Freewayfreeway]] (Cape Flats Freeway; [[Peninsula Expressway (Cape Town)|Peninsula Expressway]]). It continues southwards from the R300 junction as the western boundary of Mitchell's Plain to reach Rocklands on the [[False Bay]] coast, where it meets the [[M32 (Cape Town)|M32]] (Spine Road) before reaching its end at an intersection with the [[R310 (Western Cape)|R310]] (Baden Powell Drive) adjacent to Mnandi Beach.
