The Issue

The community of Lufhereng is facing a debilitating transport crisis due to an ongoing dispute between STS Association and Joldota Association. The STS Association has restricted Joldota taxis from operating in our area. This conflict has serious implications for our daily commute, particularly for those traveling to Mainreef Road.

Public transportation in Lufhereng is not just a matter of convenience, but a fundamental right of access to economic opportunities, education, and healthcare. Commuters have been left stranded and unable to reach their destinations on time. The restrictions imposed by STS disrupt our lives and hinder our ability to work and contribute to the local economy.

The division between STS and Joldota is neither practical nor sustainable. It is essential for these associations to collaboratively serve the community. We call upon the local authorities to step in and mediate a resolution that allows both associations to operate efficiently and fairly. An interim solution might involve defining designated routes and schedules that ensure a smooth flow of service without stepping on each other's toes.

Moreover, a failure to resolve this issue promptly might lead to long-term negative impacts on our community's cohesion and economic vitality. It is in everyone's interest to find a suitable compromise.

We urge all community members, local leaders, and stakeholders to put pressure on STS and Joldota to come to an agreement that places commuters' needs first. Sign this petition to demand immediate action and pave the way for a unified and reliable public transport solution in Lufhereng.
