Our Background

Gauteng Education Transport Services is formerly known as Scholar Transport Services.

This is a non-subsidized industry and a non-contracted service to people of Gauteng. From 1990, individual operators discovered the leaner transport market opportunities and everyone operated freely without proper coordination. The then Department of Transport Road and Works DPTRW) under the Directorate of the Taxis recognized the operation and GETS (GAUTENG EDUCATION TRANSPORT SERVICES) was formed. Through our engagement with the Department of Transport, the then DPTRW saw it fit to make funding available, the funding made it possible to develop a Strategic document. Here, the operational budget was formulated. In March 2007, all 5 Regional council structures and Associational executive councils where formalized through democratically elections..
