GEORGE NEWS - Stakeholders, together with the Minister of Transport, Fikile Mbalula and Western Cape Transport MEC Bonginkosi Madikizela, have finally come to an agreement that will allow the roll-out of Go George phase 4B to start on 22 March.
Mbalula made the announcement this afternoon at the George council chambers. Phase 4B will service Conville, Parkdene, Ballotsview, Borcherds and Lawaaikamp.
The minister said there are lots of issues that need to be looked at before implementing phase 4A, which will service the Thembalethu area, one being infrastructure.
He said Go George is about delivering a public transport solution that not only advances their commitment to enabling seamless mobility, but is also about leveraging government investment to empower the people.
"Ours is to ensure that the people are the main beneficiaries of this project. The agreement we are initiating today must be about that, and nothing else," said Mbalula.
