Rea Vaya Phase 1C Set to Transform Commuting Between Alexandra and Sandton

The daily journey between Alexandra and Sandton is about to become faster, safer, and more affordable with the upcoming Rea Vaya Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) Phase 1C route.

Currently, over 10,000 people walk between Alexandra and Sandton every day, often due to the high costs of public transport or lack of reliable alternatives. The Rea Vaya Phase 1C route will offer these commuters a better, more affordable, and more efficient way to travel to work and other destinations.
