Lesufi unveils R120bn Gautrain expansion plan in State of the Province Address
Gauteng Premier Panyaza Lesufi has prioritised transport infrastructure in the GPU's first State of the Province Address.
The SOPA was held in Katlehong on Thursday evening, a move Lesufi said was aimed at"bringing government to the people". "Secondly, in Emfuleni, we want to take advantage of the link stemming from the close proximity of Sasolburg to Gauteng. This presents an opportunity to create a new economic hub through building new roads, houses and the creation of a tourism hub, as well as taking advantage of the Vaal Dam and Vaal River.""The third opportunity is for Gauteng to be linked with Rustenburg.
Revitalising Central Business Districts into vibrant economic hubs by exploring housing opportunities at the Carlton Centre.At the time, his party, the ANC, held an outright majority in government. "I am fully confident that, under the rubric of the GPU, all the parties will spare neither effort nor strength in our determination to translate the next five years into a qualitatively better living experience for the residents of our province."
