Cape Town – The DA in the Western Cape is extremely concerned following Metrorail’s announcement that the Southern Line would be out of service for at least a week due to vandalism.
’’Criminal activity is one of several reasons why the Western Cape’s weekday train services have decreased from 444 per day to just 151 per day since 2019,’’ said Mackenzie. ’’The DA in the Western Cape remains committed to assisting our national counterparts to restoring our public transport infrastructure to operational capacity.
This triggered an emergency on the Southern Line when two wires touched, causing damage to four mast poles. ’’The damage to the mast poles and overhead electrical lines is estimated at approximately R1 million. Metrorail is prioritising the repairs on the line on order to get the service running.
Thanks to MYANC who refuse to let Our_DA take control of it.
