Daveyton train station crisis reaches parliament
September 19, 2025
|The Star
VIOLENCE and decay at Daveyton's train station have now reached Parliament following a brutal attack on five Gauteng crime wardens during their patrols.
The incident comes after written questions from both the Democratic Alliance and ActionSA highlighted prolonged delays in restoring the station. Despite repeated promises to have the station fully operational by October 2024, it remains in ruins with no visible progress.
The DA formally submitted a Petition to Rescue Daveyton Train Station, which was heard by the Parliamentary Portfolio Committee on Transport on September 16.
Councillor Mike da Silva of the DA said the petition has been officially recorded and will be considered by the committee.
