Make the switch to public transport

2017-05-29

The City of Cape Town has launched a “Drive Less, Live More” campaign to highlight the negative impact of growing traffic congestion in our city. Spending hours in traffic not only affects the quality of life of families and individuals but also affects the economy. If you haven’t done, now is the time to switch to public transport, a MyCiTi bus if you are within the areas served by this convenient bus service. The only solution to peak-hour congestion is to have fewer cars on the road.
