The City of Cape Town(COCT) announced that it has successfully concluded the supply chain management process that allows the administration to now enter into a contract with the N2 Express Joint Venture (JV) Vehicle Operating Company who operated the MyCiTi N2 Express since it launched in July 2014.
The N2 Express service that provided an affordable, regular, and scheduled public transport service between Mitchells Plain and Khayelitsha and the Civic Centre station in the Cape Town central business district was suspended at end of May 2019.
According to the COCT, the next phase of the process is to conclude the contract with the JV consisting of Codeta, Route Six, and the Golden Arrow Bus Service. However, City will only be able to provide more information once the next phase of this process has been concluded.
The latest developments by the COCT also come after it confirmed that the MyCiTi Airport route between the Cape Town International Airport and the Cape Town central business district will resume operations on Monday, November 1.
The COCT said the decision comes ahead of the festive season when more visitors from other parts of the country and abroad are expected to visit the Cape. This specific route was suspended in March 2020 due to the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic and the subsequent restrictions on movement and travel.
Meanwhile, MyCiTi commuters from Mitchells Plain and Khayelitsha will be informed of the COCT’s progress in this regard.
