The Deputy Minister of Transport Ms Sindisiwe Chikunga will host a Transport Imbizo in Gugulethu on Friday, 18 November 2016.
Since rail is the most preferred mode of transport for communities in the province, one of the key focus areas of the Imbizo will be rail safety.
In recent months the Western Cape province has experienced countless acts of vandalism and security related incidents which endangered the lives of commuters and the public.
The Imbizo will therefore provide a platform for the Deputy Minister to engage communities and stakeholders on the challenges experienced by the transport industry and how to solve them.
The details of the Imbizo are as follows:
Date: Friday, 18 October 2016
Time: 10:00
Venue: Gugulethu Sport Complex, Cnr of NY1 and NY 2, Gugulethu, Cape Town
Members of the media attending the event are requested to confirm their attendance with Motlatsi Lebea on 073 323 9333 or lebeam@dot.gov.za
