Results of the application of a cost model to public transport services in Cape Town

The City Cape Town as a part of its ongoing public transport restructuring programme and in keeping with the recently promulgated National Land Transport Transition Act (22 of 2000) has done various studies to give direction to the restructuring of its public transport system. One study of this programme is the development of an understanding of the cost structure of public transport in the regions so that the costs, on the supply side, of changes to the existing system can be compared.
