metrorail thumb medium90 92ANA reports that Metrorail has announced that train services operating between Vereeniging via Midway to Johannesburg would resume on Tuesday after a month-long service suspension.  

The suspension on June 26 followed a violent and deadly service delivery protest around Nancefield train station, with protesters having barricaded roads with debris and burning tyres, making the station inaccessible.  Spokesperson Lilian Mofokeng said that the first phase to re-introduction of services in this corridor was successfully implemented two weeks ago on 11 July following intensive stakeholder engagements.
