Question NW782 to the Minister of Transport
03 April 2019 - NW782
Hunsinger, Mr CH to ask the Minister of Transport
What are the reasons that several new vehicles have not been used and have been parked at the head office of the Passenger Rail Agency of South Africa?
Reply:
There are no new vehicles parked at PRASA Head Office. There are eight (8) double cab bakkies parked in Durban and nine (9) double cab bakkies parked in Cape Town respectively. The reason for this is due to discrepancies in the fitments when the vehicles were delivered. The vehicles did not have canopies and ladder racks. The suppliers have begun with these fitments and the vehicles will be on the road by the second week of April 2019.
