New year brings four challenges for R51bn PRASA project

Gibela CEO Marc Granger is positive the R51-billion deal that will see the Alstom-led consortium supply 600 new trains, up to 2027, to the Passenger Rail Agency of South Africa (PRASA), will move ahead swiftly this year. Up to the end of last year, Gibela awaited the handover of the Dunnottar site, which would house the consortium’s plant, as well the test track and depot required for its new rolling stock.
