Kalk Bay Station, 2pm on Monday afternoon. Busy busy busy. People are using the trains! Majority of people are not using it for commuting to work here, mostly visiting shops, restaurants, beaches, and tidal pools!

@MbekezeliMB My understanding is that during peak period (ie morning and afternoon in the week) all the trunk buses are used for scheduled services and they only have spare smaller feeder buses so they have to use those. When it’s weekend events they use both.

Yeap. We need to have last night’s experience as the standard at stadiums. MyCiti needs to bring their larger trunk busses for stadium events. It’s not possible to transport that many people using those small buses.

Last night's experience at DHL stadium was amazing. The security was on point , scanning of tickets was seamless and the crowd was a great vibe. Long may this continue for football games. It felt like the City was really prepared 👌🏾

While Gauteng is set to expand the Gautrain to another airport, Cape Town's only public transport connection to its only major airport is shuttered. *CT runs public transport better than many, but it is not immune to failures and political apathy towards public transport.

This is really interesting data, and visualised in a really digestible way!
Moving Gauteng@MovingGauteng

@TheGautrain unlocks most of the distance due to the speed of the service. @PRASA_Group @GPMetrorail will also contribute to this distance as the signalling improvements bear yield. Right now the scheduled times of Metrorail make the train travel at 40-60kmh on most segments.

Great to see @MyCiTiBus making use of the strike through cancelled services feature on Google maps for routes not operating during the cycle tour

@chillpep The Atlantic Seaboard and CBD are well served by the MyCiTi bus service. We encourage residents and visitors to use this service to get to their destinations, to walk where possible, consider working remotely, or, travel outside of the peak periods.

How is it possible that your last 113 bus from Welgemeend to Adderley is 27 minutes early???!? Really unacceptable. Please report and provide feedback @MyCiTiBus

@RashiqFataar @geordinhl There needs to be some serious inquiry/investigation into so many (completely abnormal) instances of these buses spontaneously combusting…

Bus validators sayings “In Transit” while at a bus stop meaning we can’t tap out, and all incur a R70 ticket penalty, plus my fare!! There are many reports of this. @MyCiTiBus change the setting to tap out always, like it used to be!! What if there is a deviation?? Pls feedback!
