Gautrain is a world class PT project, the only one we have. It was conceptualised as alternative means of transport to car owners, not a mass transport system to get the proletariat to work. It is failing because middle class South Africans by and large are spoilt rotten. Cars are status symbols. What's the use of paying half a mil for one if you can't show off in it. They would rather sit in traffic, and pays fortune for parking than have to travel on a timetable other than their own.
