At the R560 interchange, the R512 turned towards the north-east, bypassing Kosmos Village, to reach a 4-way junction in the suburb of Damdoryn (west of the Hartbeespoort Dam wall), where it turned to the west to be co-signed with the R104. After 5 kilometres, the R512 split from the R104 to become its own road northwards, proceeding to cross the N4 and enter Brits.
