tshwane thumb100 IOL reports that the City of Tshwane on Tuesday morning temporarily suspended its bus operations due to fuel shortages.

City spokesperson Lindela Mashigo said all three fuel stations were empty due to non-delivery of fuel by service providers. He indicated that it was not clear when operations would resume, however, the City was engaging service providers with the hope of returning bus operations to full capacity as soon as possible. The City advised commuters to make alternative transport arrangements. Meanwhile in Cape Town, several MyCiTi stations remain non-functional after being destroyed during protests. The City said three of the non-functional stations, namely Dunoon, Phoenix, and Usazaza, were expected to be repaired by 2024, while the fourth one in Woodstock would be fixed early this year. The anticipated repairs of four severely damaged buses, as well as stations destroyed by angry mobs in 2022, would cost around R11 million.
