The Minister of Transport, Dr. Blade Nzimande, invites members of the media to the media briefing following his meeting with the Board of PRASA.

The briefing comes after a meeting Minister Nzimande held with President Cyril Ramaphosa at Tuynhuys in Cape Town on Tuesday 19 March 2019 following the President’s first-hand experience of the difficulties regularly experienced by commuters when using our Metrorail Trains. 

The President boarded a train from Mabopane to the Tshwane CBD when the train was delayed which led it to be overcrowded as well.

The briefing will take place as follows:

Date:         Wednesday, 03 April 2019
Time:        13h00
Venues:     GCIS offices in Hatfield, Tshedimosetso House, 1035 Schoeman St, Hatfield, Pretoria ( Media in Cape Town can participate in the briefing through a video link from Pretoria to GCIS media center at parliament) 

Members of the media attending the briefing are requested to contact Tshegofatso Maake on 063 281 9453
