Getting You to Work

The Western Cape Government is pleased to announce the launch of Phase 2 of the “Getting You to Work” Jobseeker Travel Voucher Programme.

The programme was first piloted in February 2024 and offers unemployed jobseekers in Cape Town free travel vouchers for Golden Arrow Bus Services. The project aims to eliminate the barrier of transport costs that many job applicants face when they are going for interviews and looking for employment opportunities.

Following the success of the pilot, Phase 2 will now be rolled out to reach more unemployed residents across Cape Town.

Official launch event details:

Date: Tuesday, 10 June 2025
Time: 10h30
Venue: Mitchells Plain Town Centre Library, Melody Square, Town Centre, Mitchells Plain

The event will include remarks by Western Cape Mobility Minister Isaac Sileku, officials from the Mobility Department and project partner.

You’ll find great white sharks, African penguins, dolphins and much much more in South Africa’s oceans. Many travellers visit the coast to watch the annual whale migrations. In Hermanus, in the Western Cape, you can see hundreds of whales from June to late November. Simon’s Town, another coastal Western Cape town, is home to Boulder’s Beach.
