Imagine hopping on to a MyCiti bus and then on to a train without having to worry about producing different tickets to travel on each? This could soon be a reality.
Good news for those who use the City of Cape Town’s public transport system – the city is in talks to implement a ‘one ticket system’ for MyCiti buses, minibus taxis, Metrorail trains and privately owned bus operators.
The proposed integrated ticketing system would make use of the ‘myconnect’ card currently used for the MyCiti BRT system, but there are several snags in the plan to get this off the ground, including (you guessed it) load-shedding.
I feel that the plan is a step in the right direction, but feels like ‘putting a band-aid on a broken leg’ – we need to address the critical issues like service delivery and, on a national scale, load-shedding, before we can start thinking about a flawless and efficient transport system.

Thats soo good…..in my birth country Norway, we got a “travel card”:-) you travel all around the town with ONE card , amazing to be “a tourist”
What happened about getting all the illegal noisy minibus taxis off the road where my city operates
Wow..reminds me when I travelled in London
Awesome! Jonathan Jacobs
That’s how it works in Melbourne your Myki card allows you to travel bus train and bus
It’s makes sense… that is how it is dine. The city should have implemented this year’s ago. Our so called ministers are exposed to this abroad not sure what took you so long.
Yes great idea
sounds great
Wow taxis too…….. lets wait and see if they will agree
this city is moving forward 😉
Yes please!
Lesson from overseas.
Cut out the Mini-buses, they are the worst of all. Take them off the roads.
About time!
Wish they’d remove metrorail… Those drivers are awful
I hope i live to see this ACTUALLY happen ….hehehe
I almost believed that then I saw minibus taxis, good one.
About time!!
A step in the right direction.
Brilliant
there should be a special tariff for domestic workers so they can afford the myciti
My “old” workplace, my office was on 10th floor, right on the street, Drawing office Electricity Dept. LOVELY DAYS we had, one big family, over 50 in large office, our “dad” and few colleagues not with us anymore, MISSING THEM ALL.
Good idea
Northern Suburbs please …
About time.Thanks
Excellent ide
Good! They’re adopting the UK transport system U0001f44dU0001f3fc
When does this bus became available for Langa residents.???
Decades ahead of the rest of primitive ANC SA!
Just like the Oyster card in London.
