Park Smart. Ride Easy. Skip the Traffic.
Discover a simpler way to travel
Did you know that Cape Town motorists lose an average of 96 hours a year to traffic congestion – the equivalent of four full days. This is accordingly to the 2025 INRIX report.
If you’re tired of spending your commute sitting in traffic, Park & Ride offers a practical and more affordable alternative, with modern, clean and secure trains operating across the Cape Town metro.
Simply drive to a Park & Ride location, park your vehicle for free and complete your journey by train. You can avoid congested roads, reduce your daily travel costs and enjoy a more relaxed journey, while helping to reduce the number of cars on Cape Town’s roads.
Commuters who already use Park & Ride have told us that it has become a convenient part of their daily routine. Some reported saving 80-90% on their monthly travel costs when shifting from driving to using Park & Ride, depending on their journey and travel patterns. Alfreda, for example, spends R2,500 per month when travelling by road and only R220 on Park & Ride!
