The South African Commuter Base

Over 16.6 million South African consumers are dependent on public transport every week and key infrastructure developments such as new intermodal transit facilities, passenger rail stations and various Bus Rapid Transport systems offer various new media opportunities.

Taxis still dominate as the main mode of transportation nationally followed by buses and then rail. We have already seen a major shift in commuting patterns from taxis to BRT systems and we expect this trend to continue nationally as these systems become operational in other cities.

The power of Transit Media is undisputed as this media channel reaches economically-active consumers on a frequent basis with incredible reach and very low wastage levels.
