The Gautrain expansion project aims to link the existing network to outlying areas. However, the management company is mum on the progress.
The Gautrain Management Agency has been quiet on the progress of its Gautrain expansion project despite construction having to start relatively soon.
“The route determination of Phase 1 of the proposed extensions from Marlboro Station to Little Falls Station has been finalised.” “The current Gautrain project was in phase one, with 80km of rail network linking key economic areas in the province,” he said. The expansion project is expected to begin in 2026 when the Gauteng Provincial Government will take over ownership of the express commuter rail system.
Mdadane also noted Gautrain’s impact on job creation in South Africa. He said it helped create more than 61,000 indirect job opportunities and 10,000 direct jobs.
