The traffic related challenges at the PTI will be addressed by the traffic service operational deployment plan.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\n <i>DistrictMail &amp; Helderberg Gazette<\/i> asked the City to comment on claims that the PTI was too small and not sufficient for all taxis, its plan going forward, and whether the temporary holding site in Church Street was meant to be a permanent one. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was also drawn on why buses were parked in surrounding residential streets. \u201cThe response on the technical aspects of the PTI itself requires a lengthier response and is being compiled and verified,\u201d the City said in response. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt will be sent as soon as it is ready from Rob Quintas, Mayoral Committee member for Urban Mobility.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A full response from the City will be published once forthcoming.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The brand-new, multimillion-rand Somerset West
