"Connect to the bus system at Gandhi Square" Top 5 Page for this destination Johannesburg Transportation Tip by CatherineReichardt

Gandhi Square (seen here from the top of the Carlton Centre) is the terminus of Johannesburg's Metrobus system and was formerly known as Van der Bijl Square.

Gandhi Square is located adjacent to Eloff Street, which used to be Jo'burg's premier shopping street, but has since been eclipsed by the rise of suburban shopping malls and pernicious inner city decay. The bus terminus fell into a state of disrepair in the 1990s but as revamped around the turn of the millenium as part of a programme of inner city renewal and renamed to commemorate Mohandas Gandhi, who spent twenty years of his adult life living and working in South Africa.
