Railway strike: Day 3

Super thick traffic jam today, I hope that railway strike is worth it in the long run.
The whole thing just made it more apparent, that something needs to be done with the public transport of Cape Town and the roads which cannot handle the capacity anymore.

The trains are in urgent need of repair and several train stations need major upgrades. Apparently 50 Billion Rand (ZAR) is available but not used. A typical case of management not caring about their customers while lining their pockets.

Since the 2010 World cup Soccer is supposed to happen here, this strike will hopefully serve as a wake-up call since it seems to be the best thing that has happened for a while. Obviously the strike is an annoyance to the commuters, but it serves them in the end.
