Art gives MyCiTi stations a cultural as well as a functional value, celebrating the unique history of each area, the indigenous environment and local aesthetics. As part of the design process, established and emerging artists from every genre – world-class street artists to celebrated sculptors and ceramicists – were invited to submit ideas. This commitment to public art – as much as the innovative fare system or attention to universal access – is what has made this transport system special.

Next time you’re near a station, look out for the work that tells a unique story of the place.
