The Overberg Corridor rail revival plan aims to bring back freight trains to the Western Cape by 2028, shifting 10% of goods from trucks to rail. This will cut transport costs, ease busy highways, and reduce pollution by a huge 70%. The plan focuses on fixing old tracks, building partnerships, and using cleaner, smarter trains to boost local farms and communities. It’s a hopeful step to connect people and markets, blending the region’s history with a greener, stronger future.
