A Behind-the-Scenes Journey into Bombela Operating Company\u2019s Operational Brilliance with Gautrain<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n

Aside from the Gautrain<\/strong> project being recognised as one of the most successfully executed Public Private Partnerships (PPP) in this region, it also exemplifies the true essence of localisation and skills transfer when carried out correctly. This transition is evident in the journey of the Bombela Operating Company (BOC)<\/strong>. Initially managed by an international team from its parent company, RATP-Group<\/strong> based in France, the BOC, responsible for operating and maintaining the Gautrain system under the Concession, has evolved into predominantly a South African-operated enterprise. Due to the integration of localised skills, capabilities, and operational support, BOC stands in a prime position to not only continue with the Gautrain services, but also offer their seamless multimodal integrated public transport system solutions, into the rest of the Southern African Region.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

LAMATA paves the way for sustainable transport strategies in Africa<\/h5>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n

The Lagos Metropolitan Area Transport Authority (LAMATA) and Ochenuel Mobility recently concluded a two-day Sustainable Urban Mobility Course (SUMCOURSE) in Lagos, focusing on enhancing non-motorized transport, implementing green wave transport corridors, and integrating gender equality in African city transportation systems. Urban planners, transport engineers, and various stakeholders discussed and developed innovative strategies to prioritize walking and cycling in urban mobility. Simulated conversations during the course highlighted the positive impact of traffic management strategies on traffic flow, air quality, and public health, emphasizing the significant benefits of prioritizing non-motorized transport. Agence Fran\u00e7aise de Development (AFD) presented on AFD\u2019s transportation and urban mobility projects in Nigeria, including investments in trains, the Lagos Bus Rapid Transit system, and water transportation. Notably, AFD\u2019s collaboration with LASWA includes developing 15 water routes for the \u201cOmi Eko\u201d project, with plans to acquire 75 electric vessels, and funding LAMATA\u2019s projects like Quality Bus Corridors and interchanges at Marina and Mile 2.<\/p>\n

Participants shared case studies on sustainable mobility initiatives like smart parking, non-motorized transport infrastructure, integrated multimodal transport systems, the 15-minute city concept, and road and traffic management. LAMATA\u2019s Managing Director, Engr. Mrs. Abimbola Akinajo, outlined an ambitious public transportation improvement plan, including the Bus Reform Program and a partnership with the private sector to introduce about 2,000 new buses in the next 24 months. She also announced plans to establish bus assembly plants in Lagos to support the expansion of the bus network, thereby reducing procurement and maintenance costs. The conference concluded with a call to action for African cities to adopt holistic approaches to sustainable mobility for all road users.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The Lagos Metropolitan Area Transport Authority (LAMATA) celebrated its 20th anniversary<\/h5>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n

This past week marked the 20th anniversary of the Lagos Metropolitan Area Transport Authority (LAMATA), an agency that has significantly shaped the transportation infrastructure in Lagos. LAMATA has been instrumental in the development of major urban mobility projects, including the Lagos Blue and Red Rail Lines, under the leadership of Engr. Mrs. Abimbola Akinajo.<\/p>\n

The Lagos Blue Line stands as a key achievement in LAMATA\u2019s portfolio, showcasing the agency\u2019s commitment to improving urban mobility. The impending launch of the Red Line rail project is also a testament to LAMATA\u2019s ongoing efforts to revolutionize transportation in Lagos. Beyond rail projects, LAMATA has played a crucial role over the past two decades in various other transportation initiatives, such as the implementation of the Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) system. The agency has also been involved in the First and Last Mile (FLM) programs, enhancing connectivity between different transportation modes. Additionally, LAMATA introduced the Cowry card, providing a unified payment system for Lagos State\u2019s transportation network.<\/p>\n

Looking ahead, LAMATA is poised to continue its impact on urban transportation with the planned implementation of interchange projects at Mile 2 and Marina. These projects are expected to further enhance the efficiency and integration of Lagos\u2019 transportation system. As LAMATA enters another decade of operation, it remains a key player in the evolution of urban mobility in Lagos.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Holiday-makers Can Now Travel to Durban Cape Town by Train for Less Than a R1000<\/h5>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n

The Passenger Rail Agency of South Africa (PRASA) is excited to announce that its division, the Mainline Passenger Services (MLPS), has resumed the Johannesburg to Durban and Cape Town services on the Shosholoza Meyl. The services, both suspended in 2021, are set to resume just in time for the December holiday period. These services resume as cash-strapped consumers are battling with the costs of long-distance travel. For just less than R1000 for a single trip, PRASA is inviting passengers to a unique experience to their destinations far from the hassles of traffic congestion and escalating travelling costs.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, PRASA is also pleased to announce that, for added convenience, Shosholoza Meyl will be offering an affordable private car transportation service at an additional cost for passengers travelling to Durban. This service is also open to the general public, providing a convenient option for those who wish to transport their vehicles.<\/p>\n

PRASA is making significant strides in rebuilding and recovering the rail infrastructure, with 27 commuter rail lines restored to date. The business is also working on restoring long-distance passenger rail services, with Shosholoza Meyl currently transporting people from Johannesburg to Queenstown and Musina. The resumption of the Johannesburg to Durban and Cape Town services marks another milestone in the revival of long-distance passenger rail services.<\/p>\n

Contact details for bookings: 011 013 0231\/ 2 \/3, Alternatively: 012 748 7362 or 015 299 606 or visiting the nearest Shosholoza Meyl Ticket office.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Machipanda Line Inauguration<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n

The Presidents of Mozambique, Filipe Nyusi, and Zimbabwe, Emmerson Mnangagwa, recently inaugurated the refurbished Machipanda Line. This $200 million investment, undertaken between August 2019 and November 2023, focuses on strengthening regional integration by enhancing passenger transport and increasing cargo volume. The renovation work included replacing rails, switching from wooden to reinforced concrete sleepers, and adding new ballasts, significantly reducing train transit time from 18 to 12 hours. The 317km line, connecting Beira Port in Sofala to Zimbabwe, is also expected to positively impact Zambia and Malawi.<\/p>\n

Portos e Caminhos de Ferro de Mo\u00e7ambique has announced the resumption of passenger trains on the Machipanda Line operating on Tuesdays and Saturdays in the Beira-Machipanda direction, and Tuesdays and Sundays in the Machipanda-Beira direction, from 5 December, 2023. With 317km in length, the Machipanda Line plays a crucial role in the Border Corridor and trade with Zimbabwe. The 3rd Beira-Moatize Quarry and vice versa will be introduced on the Hay Line, beginning December 10, providing more options for the movement of people and goods.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
