The Passenger Rail Agency of South Africa says its plans to revamp the country's rail system should create up to 100 000 job opportunities for skilled and semi-skilled workers over an 18-year period.
Prasa is set to invest about R97 billion in the project.
Government is allocating R30.2 billion to the agency over the next three years.
Prasa will obtain new commuter coaches and Shosholoza Meyl coaches and locomotives, enabling it to achieve its objective of expanding the public rail transport network and offering more routes to destinations around the country.
