MyCiTi is a bus rapid transit system currently under development in Cape Town, South Africa. Its first full phase opened in May 2011, providing an express bus connection between Table View, Milnerton and central Cape Town, as well as several feeder services.
MyCiTi began operations in May 2010, shortly before the 2010 FIFA World Cup, providing a shuttle service from the Civic Centre (where a new bus terminus was constructed) to Cape Town International Airport. It also included a temporary loop around the City Bowl for the duration of the World Cup.
The first proper Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) phase (Phase 1A) opened in May 2011. It includes a dedicated West Coast busway from the city centre through Milnerton to Table View, along which an express bus service operates. Connecting to this trunk route is a route in the City Bowl connecting Gardens, the Civic Centre bus station and the Waterfront, as well as three feeder services around Table View, Bloubergstrand and Parklands.
It is planned that the West Coast busway will be extended to Atlantis, and that a trunk link to Montague Gardens will be added.
