TABLE 2.26provides a summary of the inventory assessment of mini-bus tax i<br />
facilities. Only 25% of the mini-bus taxi ranks are in a good condition. Most ranks<br />
lack the basic amenities generally present at such facilities. How ever, this is mainly<br />
as a result of most ranks in <strong>Sedibeng</strong> being either informal and/or temporary on-street<br />
ranks.<br />
