GOLDEN ARROW ASSISTS METRORAIL PASSENGERS

In terms of the agreement between Metrorail and Golden Arrow we will be assisting train
passengers during the current service disruptions. Rail passengers in possession of valid
weekly or monthly train tickets will be able to use their tickets on Golden Arrow buses
between 08:00 and 15:30 and from 18:30 to 05:30, until such time that train services
resume normal operations. These restrictions are imposed in fairness to Golden Arrow
customers and to avoid overcrowding.

Rail commuters boarding a Golden Arrow bus outside of these hours will have to pay the
appropriate cash fare. Golden Arrow will operate additional trips to and from the areas
where there is the greatest demand and we will continue to operate until all passengers
waiting at bus stops have been assisted. It is however important to note that even during
unfortunate situations such as these buses are only able to run on existing bus routes.
