Phase 2 of upgrade to Rosebank’s public transport facility in full swing
The upgrade will assist those using Rosebank’s public transport, which serves as a critical transport hub in the precinct.
Rosebank Precinct will soon get a transport upgrade, confirmed by the Johannesburg Development Agency (JDA) through a media release on June 18.

Located on Cradock Avenue, with access from Biermann and Jelicoe avenues, the facility serves as a critical transport hub in the rapidly expanding Rosebank precinct. “This upgrade will improve the daily experience of commuters, as well as enhance support for inclusive economic activity through better facilities for informal traders. The JDA remains committed to working with all stakeholders to deliver a resilient, accessible, and future-ready transport node.”
With increasing development in the area, the existing facility has struggled to meet rising commuter demand.
