Metrorail

Metrorail

Trains are a cheap form of public transport. They are also a greener option because they can transport many people, cutting down on emissions released from cars. Metrorail is the Western Cape's train provider.

Metrorail Interchanges

Instead of driving to work, try parking your car at a public transport interchange (PTI) that is close to home and ride the train the rest of the way.

The City has provided the following 16 rail stations with upgraded park and ride facilities:

  • Brackenfell
  • Claremont
  • Diep River
  • Eerste River
