               business zone, two Gautrain buses circulating around
               Waterfall City and the surrounding residential estates,
               and no less than five fuel stations to keep everyone
               going. We have also developed a taxi holding facility
               and two taxi super stops, and have improved the
               road system to keep pace with growth. With south
