We’re Friends of @prasa_group by @young_urbanists to advocate for an integrated, safe & connected public transport system. WC Metro only for now 🦓🚈

.@RailGibela’s new trains are built in SA, creating 1,150 local jobs and boosting our economy. But are our stations ready for everyone? The law says public transport must be accessible—are we making it happen?

[Friends of PRASA @friendsofPRASA]

In 2020, 95% of PRASA’s rail network was destroyed by theft & vandalism. By June 2024, 31 of 40 corridors are back, with passenger numbers rising to 40M—up from 15M. South Africa’s trains are making a comeback.

Collaboration & active civil society will be key in restoring rail.

Wild idea, but is there seriously no money for a train linking CT CBD and the airport?

It won't only ferry people between the airport and the CBD, but hopefully drastically reduce the bottle neck that is Hospital Bend in Peak morning and Peak afternoons.

So much time wasted.
