In May 2006 the City submitted priority statements to the national Department of Transport for consideration for funding from the "set aside" Public Transport Infrastructure Fund (PTIF).
To receive funding, projects to be undertaken for the 2010 FIFA World Cup™ should primarily focus on public transport and should be legacy projects that will benefit citizens after the final whistle has blown.
In addition, a High-Level Transport Plan was developed to:
Review the current transport network and propose improvements in the context of world cup transport demands;
Outline the likely world cup spectator and official transport requirements;
Review stadium and precinct developments; and
Highlight critical issues.
This plan is being used as a basis for the development of high level public transport operational plans in preparation for the world cup.
A number of projects have been undertaken by the transport department in preparation for 2010:
High level public transport operational plans for Nasrec;
High level public transport operational plans for Ellis Park;
High level public transport operational plans for six of the eight official training venues;
Ellis Park and Nasrec SPTN links; and • Park-and-ride facilities.
