The MyCiTi bus service is introducing five additional temporary stops to the MyCiTi bus network. Two of the new stops are in Khayelitsha, another two in Atlantis and one in Woodstock. These stops will come into effect as from Saturday. The bus service has also added additional weekday trips to the D01 and D02 routes connecting Khayelitsha with the Cape Town City Centre.
Mayco Member for Urban Mobility, Rob Quintas, says it provides
residents with better access to this reliable and affordable bus service with
stops close to schools and commercial areas.
‘’One of the new Atlantis stops will provide safer access
to a local primary school. In Woodstock, a new stop will be added next to an
existing public transport stop allowing for smoother transfers between other
public transport services and MyCiTi. Furthermore commuters are to note that
the D01 and D02 routes connecting Khayelitsha with the Cape Town city centre
will operate additional weekday trips.’’
The new trips along the D01 and D02 routes will depart as follows:
D01 Khayelitsha East to the Civic Centre
• From Kuyasa
towards Civic Centre: 05:30, 07:36, 17:53

Commuters are advised to use the MyCiTi trip planner for
suggestions on what times to catch the bus, what routes to take, and any
transfers they need to make to get to their final destination. The trip planner
can be found on www.myciti.org.za or the free official MyCiTi app.
