South Africa's Rapid Train to Link Pretoria and Johannesburg

South Africa's most ambitious rail project is taking shape between Tshwane (Pretoria) and Johannesburg. The Gautrain Rapid Rail Link will reign across a 80-km/50-mi network connecting both cities with Johannesburg International Airport and a number of intermediate stations.

The new high-speed service brings a promise of continued growth to burgeoning Gauteng Province. Seen as a hedge against spiraling fuel prices, Gautrain promises relief for traffic-weary commuters long tied to private cars and an ad-hoc fleet of mini-bus taxis.

The Gautrain Rapid Rail Link is scheduled to hit the rails in time for Johannesburg's hosting of the 2010 World Cup. That target should assure a steady flow of funding and adherence to the project's timetable.
