We present this petition in connection with the Gauteng Metrorail Services

ISSUES TO BE PRESENTED

• Safety on trains (Security & Police)
• Safety of Passengers (No windows & Doors on some Coaches)
• Daily Delays due to faulty sets / theft
• Lack of communication
• On a daily basis Metrorail reports cable theft, panel and points out
• We propose that the Provincial government embark on an infrastructure fund for Metrorail Gauteng to fast track the backlog on infrastructure development

SOLUTIONS PROPOSAL

• Rail Police to be always available on trains
• Railway Safety Regulator to monitor state of trains before they carry commuters
• All trains should have regular patrols to reduce theft and damages to Commuters and Trains
• RSR to monitor that safety plans are followed through and implemented by Metrorail
• Imbizo for commuters by all stakeholders DOT / R.S.R / M.E.C and PRASA

Countless meetings with commuters have been held but no improvements have been laid to date. Join us in this endeavor to get the Dep. of Transport & Government to intervene in order to maintain an acceptable service to the Commuters who are fed up with the current operations
