Africa-Press – South-Africa. The Go George bus rollout in Thembalethu in George will go ahead as planned, despite a petrol-bomb attack on one of the bus service’s vehicles earlier this week, which left 11 people injured.
The attack occurred a day after Go George announced that services would be rolled out to the area, sparking fears of taxi industry backlash.
But Thembalethu taxi associations denied that the industry was behind the attack.
“The Western Cape government is committed to providing safe, affordable and reliable public transport to all our communities in the province, and we note that the Thembalethu community has been waiting for the Go George service for many years now.”
