Gauteng MEC for Roads and Transport Dr Ismail Vadi together with MEC for the Department of Economic Development, Eric Xayiya, will on Wednesday, 16 April 2014 officially launch the GoGauteng application at Emoyeni Conference Centre, Johannesburg.
The app will include all modes of transport that can be used in and around Gauteng, serving as an effective planning and direction tool for public transport users. It will also include stations, stops, locations, listings, operational times and announcements.
