Metrorail has been experiencing problems of vandalism and sabotage in the greater Cape Town area in the last few weeks.

The Metrorail Management will be meeting with the MEC for Transport in the Western Cape Mr Robin Carlisle today to discus possible ways of fighting these problems.

The commuters have been affected dearly by the train delays and Metrorail incurred losses.

The meeting is scheduled to start at midday between the MEC for Transport, Metrorail Management and Santaco under the Chairmanship of Mr Mike Marsden the Deputy City Manager of Cape Town.
