New Gautrain routes set to connect Hatfield and Gauteng
Category Commercial Property News
The functionality of any area relies heavily on adequate public transport as cities cannot grow and flourish unless they have this practical amenity firmly set in place. One of the challenges the whole of South Africa faces, is public transportation that can cater the demand from the public. Many major urban areas cannot keep up with this demand, especially as more and more people move into urban areas to find work.
However, since around 2010 the City of Johannesburg and the Gauteng province have slowly started to implement more and more transportation links to try and accommodate commuters from all over the region. One of these initiatives is the highly regarded Gautrain service which has enabled many people from certain parts of the province to have alternatives in terms of transport options. Thus also alleviating traffic pollution and congestion in certain key suburbs.
Residents from one of the Pretoria's most affluent locations Hatfield will be pleased to know that there is currently a feasibility study taking place on a proposed route that will run through new destinations including Soweto and Lanseria Airport. This will greatly improve the lives of people who live on the outskirts of Johannesburg but need to travel into the city for work.
"The expansion is said to be a link-up of the Gautrain in Hatfield Station, Pretoria, with Lanseria Airport and through Randburg to link-up with Soweto and the Johannesburg business district. Vadi says: "We are in constant communication with the National Treasury and the National Department of Transport and hopefully when we are done with this piece of work, we will be able to have a more meaningful discussion with Treasury at least to get the first leg of the approval which is very critical." -https://ewn.co.za/2018/10/22/listen-feasibility-of-expanding-gautrain-to-lanseria-soweto-completed
