1. INTRODUCTION
The Integrated Transport Plan (ITP) prepared in terms of the National Land
Transport Transition Act (NLTTA) 2000, for the period 2005 to 2010, has
been prepared by the eThekwini Municipality.
eThekwini Municipality covers approximately
2300km 2 and is home to some 3.7 million people,
just over one third of the population of KwaZulu
Natal. It is by far the largest of the two
Metropolitan councils in the province and
accounts for 60% of economic activity within the
province.
The ITP consists of 15 sections as shown below.
The full documented is supported by appendices
some in hard copy format and others in electronic
