The Gautrain will be operational from today after a certificate was issued confirming that it met all its contractual agreements.
“It is wonderful to finally see this project come to life and a privilege to have been part of such a historic moment for South Africa.
We can look forward to offering both international and local World Cup soccer fans a world-class railway service to and from Oliver Tambo International Airport,” said Ric Snowden, Arup project director for the Gautrain.
Arup served as the Gautrain’s independent certifier. It issued a certificate on Monday of operations commencement that confirmed the developers had met all needs to operate the rain.
