GO GEORGE is a public bus service in George, South Africa.
History In 2003, the Western Cape Government financed the Sandkraal Road Corridor Mobility Strategy, which aimed to improve public transport between Thembalethu Township and the George CBD. The strategy was later expanded into the George Integrated Public Transport Network (GIPTN), which operates as GO GEORGE.
Following the introduction of the National Land Transport Act in 2009, George became eligible for Public Transport Network Grant funding. Funding was approved in 2013. The first phase of GO GEORGE was launched on 8 December 2014, between the CBD and northern and eastern suburbs. Additional phases followed, expanding services to other parts of the city.
