No quick fix for Cape Town’s trains, commuters told

There is “no quick fix” to the problems with Cape Town’s trains, says Metrorail’s Riana Scott, in response to a letter from eight train commuters complaining about constant delays and shortages of trains on the southern line, GroundUp reports. In the letter, sent on August 17, the commuters complained of inefficiencies with the train system. They urged Metrorail to treat this as an emergency because between 400 000 and 700 000 people used trains daily in the Western Cape.
