Programme 6: Public Transport This branch involves the operationalisaton of all the plans of other branches, particularly on public transport issues. The focus is on developing operational plans for all three modes of transport. There is a detailed support operational plan for the taxi industry and the DOT is exploring the possibility of a route for a meter-taxi industry and formalising it as a form of business, particularly for evening operations. There is a structured process of engagement with the taxi industry on the Bus Rapid Transit system (BRT). The branch also focuses on enterprise development, regulation and operating licenses. A framework for general public transport in determining fares has been identified and the department is exploring implementation possibilities.
