Time to question BRT systems in South Africa, says Vadi, Transport Minister

South Africa, as a country, has to ask itself some “serious questions” about bus-rapid transit (BRT) systems, Gauteng Roads and Transport MEC Dr Ismail Vadi said on Monday. Speaking at the Southern African Transport Conference (SATC) in Pretoria on Monday, he said that the three BRT systems in Gauteng – in Tshwane, Johannesburg and Ekurhuleni – built at a collective cost of around R10-billion, were transporting roughly 75 000 people a day, with around 65 000 of these people in Johannesburg alone.
