    MyCiti Bus routes

    All MyCiTi services that operate in the city bowl area will be diverted.

    The road closures that will affect the MyCiTi services are:

    – N2 inbound
    – Incoming lanes of Hertzog Boulevard between Christiaan Barnard Street and Heerengracht Street
    – Heerengracht Street between Hans Strijdom Avenue and Walter Sisulu Avenue
    – Adderley Street between Wale Street and Hans Strijdom Avenue
    – Strand Street between Long Street and Russel Street

    MyCiTi buses will not be allowed to access the incoming lane along Hertzog Boulevard between 18:00 till the end of service. Services that make use of the pods along that side of Civic Centre Station will be relocated during this period.

    The T01 service from Table View will both drop off and pick up at Pod 3 instead of dropping off at Pod 2. It will be diverted onto Marine Drive from Paarden Eiland Road and will, therefore, not access Woodstock Station during the road closure period.

    The 102 service to Salt River and the 103 service to Oranjezicht will be relocated from Pod 6 to Pod 11.

    The T01 service towards Table View
     will however not be affected by the road closure and operate as normal.

    Complete road closures will take place from 18:00 to 22:00. MyCiTi buses will not be allowed to access the dedicated red lane along the closed roads and all Civic Centre Station pods along the incoming side of Hertzog Boulevard will be closed during this period.

    Routes A01, T01 and all existing inner city routes (except Route 113) will be diverted from 18:00 till end of service.
