PUBLIC PARTICIPATION PROCESS: DRAFT FARE POLICY

The Nelson Mandela Bay Municipality (NMBM) is looking to expand the starter service of Libhongolethu during the 2024/2025 municipal financial year to the Kariega contract area. The expansion will be implemented in terms of Section 41 of the National Land Transport Act (Act 5 of 2009) (NLTA). This phase comprises two main routes that originate in Rosedale via the Kariega CBD terminals to KwaNobuhle. It is the responsibility of the NMBM to acquire and provide a method of collecting and controlling fares charged to passengers.

A fare is defined as the amount or charge received in exchange for the transport services provided. The Fare Policy determines the business rules as they apply to the fares and typically deals with increases, concessions or discounts, effects of changes in underlying operational costs, and related matters. It is planned for this fare collection to ultimately be undertaken by means of an automated fare collection (AFC) system; however, while the process of procuring the AFC is underway, a paper ticketing system will be utilised.

It is a requirement that the Draft Fare Policy be made available for public comment and that adequate opportunity be provided for all stakeholders to make representations or objections. Such representations and objections shall be reviewed by the authority and, if necessary, the draft shall be revised prior to submission to Council for approval.

The Draft NMBM Fare Policy will be available for inspection and comment by the general public, interested and affected parties at the Public Libraries and Customer Care Centres in the NMBM. It will also be published in the document library on the municipal website: www.nelsonmandelabay.gov.za/documentlibrary.

All comments, representations, and objections are to be submitted in writing to the Senior Director: Transport Planning, Roads and Stormwater at zzinto@mandelametro.gov.za, ssomjaliso@mandelametro.gov.za, and kmitchell@mandelametro.gov.za by FRIDAY, 23 MAY 2025.
