Since 1994 there have been efforts to formalize the industry but as taxi organisations often don't abide by labour regulations, relationships between taxi operators and the state are often strained. ===Cape Town and MyCiTi IRT=== The City of Cape Town has made it clear that developing public transportation must be a priority, if it is to achieve its long-term developmental goals.
This first phase has been designed to enable easy integration of other forms of public transport - ranging from cycling to South Africa's famous minibuses in later phases of the IRT development - including rail transit, seen currently as "the backbone of public transportation in Cape Town." ==Railways== In 2000, South Africa had 20,384 km of rail transport, all of it narrow gauge.

In 2006 the new port is to open: Ngqura, at Coega, which is 20 km northeast of Gqeberha.
In 2007, the construction of this system began with the implementation of Cape Town's "Bus Rapid Transit" system.
The operation of the country's rail systems is accomplished by Transnet subsidiaries Transnet Freight Rail, Shosholoza Meyl, Metrorail, Transnet Engineering, Protekon et al. A feasibility study is to be conducted into the construction of a 720 km of (standard gauge) line from Johannesburg to Durban for double-stack container trains. On 2010-06-07 the Gautrain opened between Oliver R Tambo International Airport (ORTIA) and Sandton.
The administration and operation of the country's port facilities are done by two subsidiaries of Transnet, the Transnet National Ports Authority and South African Port Operations (SAPO). As of March 2018, the merchant marine consisted of 15 ships totalling 431,133 GT. ==Pipelines== There are 931 km of crude oil pipeline transport, 1,748 km for other petroleum products, and 322 km for natural gas.
