Commuters in several parts of the Eastern Cape were left stranded due to a strike by scholar transport operators. The operators under the scholar transport program suspended their services and blockaded several roads, claiming that they had not received their monies since January.

The operators have been transporting learners since the start of the 2024 academic year.

The scholar transport operators say they have been struggling to make ends meet due to non-payment by the transport department.

Some say their taxis have been repossessed as they are unable to afford monthly instalments. The taxi operators took their anger and frustrations to the street and closed major roads.

Commuters were left stranded and spent hours waiting for the roads to re-open.
