NEWSWATCH: Delays continue for Metrorail commuters

Metrorail commuters travelling on the central train line along the Cape Flats will be affected by the closed line until Wednesday, 17 January 2018.

Officials suspended services on the central line after a security guard was killed by unidentified suspects during an armed robbery at the Chris Hani station in Khayelitsha last week.

According to a report on IOL, Metrorail spokesperson Riana Scott confirmed that the central train services were still closed, as labour issues remained unresolved.

Said Scott: “Current alternative arrangements continue. No single, returns, weekly tickets will be sold and monthly train ticket holders may use Golden Arrow buses off-peak (after 8.30am and again after 6pm).”
