of Port St Johns. Once the N2 Wild Coast Toll Route is complete, the R61 designation will only apply to the section of the current route from Mthatha westwards through Komani, Cradock and Graaff-Reinet to Beaufort West. The old N2 section through KwaBhaca, Kokstad and Harding will also be given a different designation, probably R102. As of 2021, the road classification numbers on the board signs on the R61 between Port Shepstone and Port Edward have already been changed to signs indicating the N2 as part of the Wild Coast Highway Project, indicating that the freeway from the Oribi Toll Plaza & N2 interchange in Port Shepstone southwards will no-longer be designated as the R61. Also, some of the Eastern Cape sections of the new Wild Coast Highway are being constructed as of 2021.
