This is a perfect example of how apartheid was baked into the urban planning of South African cities where infrastructure such as highways and train lines were used as barriers between white, indian, "coloured" and black designated areas of the city. Today they live on as barriers between rich and poor which is still unfortunately primarily along racial lines.
