The project entails a freestanding elevated traffic circle at the intersection of Jan Smuts Drive and Govan Mbeki Road, the first of its kind in South Africa, as part of the roll-out of the MyCiTi service to the metro-south east.
“Dedicated infrastructure like this, that is smart and cutting-edge, also helps build community pride. One of the key pledges of this administration is to make public transport work by expanding the MyCiTi bus service to link poorer residents with work opportunities. We are steadily working towards that goal and I’m pleased to mark the commencement of this project.”
“The Sky Circle Project is an inspirational undertaking, not only in the extent of the work and the commuting benefits it will bring to commuters, but also in the investment in the surrounding communities in the form of temporary job and training opportunities and sub-contracts to local businesses. We are on track to deliver on our commitment to widen the choice of public transport offerings to residents from the metro-south east,” said Quintas.
