The project consists of the design of a new transport interchange and urban node at the new Kuyasa Station in Khayelitsha. It includes a new taxi rank, trading and ablution facilities, urban squares and landscaping on both sides of a new railway line. The project was subject to extensive community participation and will be opened in 2009. Anticipated to be used intensively, the buildings have been designed as simple and robust facilities, in a dignified architectural language to restore a sense of pride to the area.
