Fin24 reports that according to City of Cape Town councillor Angus McKenzie, the Democratic Alliance (DA) run metro would not be giving up its fight to have national government cede management responsibility of the Metrorail network in the city.
His remarks came as the Cape Town Metropolitan Municipality pressed on with its legal application to manage its own Metrorail network. Metrorail networks currently fall under the responsibility of the national government. Cape Town’s trains and stations have been beset with vandalism, aging infrastructure and delays. McKenzie commented: "For Cape Town it’s really critical that we sort out Metrorail. The application is in. We are in the process of building additional lines to link certain areas outside the centre of the city. We want that power devolved to us."
