She said that while there would be a reduced service as a result of a public holiday‚ the service would improve on Friday.
“As of Friday‚ Midrand station will be open from 5.45am.”
She said the afternoon peak will be extended to commence at 3.30 pm instead of 4pm.
“Trains will now travel between Pretoria and Park stations‚ stopping at Centurion‚ Midrand‚ Sandton and Rosebank stations.
“As a result passengers travelling to Park Station will no longer be required to change trains at Sandton.”
She said that during the peak periods buses would service Midrand station in addition to other stations that were currently operating.
Nayager said the bus shuttle service between Pretoria and Hatfield would continue to operate as per current plan.
