R708 road (South Africa)

The R708 is a Regional Route in South Africa. Its north-western terminus is the R506 at Christiana, North West. From that intersection, it crosses the N12, and leaves the town to the south-east to enter the Free State. The first town it passes through is Hertzogville, where it crosses the R59. After Hertzogville, it heads east-south-east, to Bultfontein. At Bultfontein it intersects the R700 at a staggered junction. After that it gives off the south-easterly R718, before leaving the town heading just south of east; it then reaches Theunissen. At this town it crosses the R30, at another staggered junction. From Theunissen it heads to Winburg. It meets the N1 and N5 (at its western origin) just north-east of the town. It is co-signed with the N5 heading east and passing just north of the town, before diverging and heading south-east to Marquard. At Marquard, it meets the R707's southern origin. From Marquard, the route heads south-south-east, reaching its end at Clocolan, at an intersection with the R703.
