The City of Cape Town has spent approximately R65 million on the construction of a new public transport interchange (PTI) in Somerset West. The new PTI is located on two different sites in the Somerset West CBD, one behind the Town Hall and another on the Shoprite side. Together, the facility is approximately 4 000m² in size to accommodate minibus-taxi operators, bus services, informal traders, and thousands of commuters. According to the COCT, the facility is complete with the contractor attending to final snags. If all goes as planned, commuters and operators will be able to use the PTI by June, before the worst of winter arrives City’s Mayoral Committee Member for Urban Mobility, Councillor Rob Quintas, visited the area and gives us feedback now
