The eThekwini Municipality has announced plans to replace nearly 8,000 expired MUVO cards, a move that will provide commuters with new options and support to ensure their public transport experience remains uninterrupted. This replacement plan comes at a cost of R500,000, a significant investment in the municipality’s public transport system.
MUVO Card Replacement Process
According to the municipality, the replacement process will be carried out in phases, with commuters being notified of the new card collection dates and locations. The eThekwini Municipality website will also provide updates on the replacement process, ensuring that commuters stay informed.
The MUVO card system has been in place since 2017, providing commuters with a convenient and affordable way to travel on public transport. With the replacement of the expired cards, commuters can expect improved services, including the ability to top up their cards online and access real-time information on bus schedules.
Benefits of the New MUVO Cards
The new MUVO cards will offer a range of benefits, including:
- Improved security features to prevent card cloning and fraud
- Enhanced customer support services, including a dedicated call centre and online support
- Increased convenience, with the ability to top up cards online and access real-time information on bus schedules
The replacement of the expired MUVO cards is part of the municipality’s efforts to improve its public transport system, which includes the Integrated Public Transport System. This system aims to provide a safe, reliable, and efficient public transport network, with the goal of reducing congestion and promoting sustainable transport options.
