Clr says BRT issues still to be resolved

Lisa Seftel’s vision of the way the Bus Rapid Transit system should work (in last week’s Jewish Report) is lofty and wishful. How it will actually work is going to be the test. But the present problems are not wished away with the hopeful future outcomes

There are many issues which are very irritating for residents at the moment and solutions need to be found. Traffic law enforcement must be stepped up, directional signage must be improved, the promised nighttime construction should actually happen to alleviate congestion and taxi rat-running needs to be controlled.

Inadequate right turns to the west and the Osborn intersection must be reassessed by traffic engineers and the fence erected in the median for the safety of pedestrians, should be re-thought so as not to cause a visually conceived “divide”. Then maybe the citizens of Johannesburg would be more ready to accept the present Johannesburg administration’s vision.
