stock road train station

PRASA’s plan to relocate 900 households along a section of the railway line in Cape Town has met resistance from traditional authorities. The proposed relocation site near the Stock Road train station in Philippi East conflicts with traditional circumcision rituals that take place on the land during the months of June and December. The Somagwaza Institute, a nonprofit organization dedicated to preserving traditional Xhosa culture, has taken a firm stance against the plan and is actively opposing it. The future of the Metrorail Central Line remains uncertain as the conflict continues.
