The City of Ekurhuleni has temporarily suspended its Harambee Bus Rapid Transport (BRT) services due to a contractual dispute with the BRT operator.

The suspension affects bus operations, station services, and ticket sales.

The city is currently in discussions with the operator to resolve the dispute as quickly as possible to allow services to resume.
