News24Wire reports that the City of Cape Town has given the shareholders running the stalled N2 MyCiTi Express service an ultimatum to get the buses running again by 28 September otherwise it will find another service provider.  

"We have sent a letter to the three shareholders – namely CODETA, Route 6 Taxi Association, and the Golden Arrow Bus Service – indicating that the buses must be back on the road by September 28, 2019," said mayoral committee member for transport Felicity Purchase.  The shareholders have to send an internal agreement to the city that will see the service reinstated on, or before this deadline.  The previous contract ended on 31 May, without a new one in place.  Purchase said the city was committed to concluding a new agreement with the N2 Express Company, but if it failed to meet the deadline, it would pursue alternatives.
