High Mast Lighting Project Launch at Eikenfontein Station

9 July 2014

On 10 July 2014, Donald Grant, Minister of Transport and Public Works and Richard Walker, Regional Manager for Metrorail will be initiating the high mast lighting at the Eikenfontein Train Station.

The high mast lighting is part of a joint initiative launched last year, in line with on-going efforts to improve safety at key stations in Area Central.

The project is funded by the Department of Transport and Public Works to the value of R4 million. It includes the initial rollout of 25 scrambler bikes, and now the initiation of high mast lighting at Eikenfontein and Van der Stel stations.

Minister Grant and Mr Walker will provide details on the project focused on addressing safety concerns at Metrorail stations.
