Vanderbijlpark is approximately an hour’s drive from OR Tambo Aiport<\/a> close to Johannesburg. There is no regular public transit service between OR Tambo Airport and Vanderbijlpark. Delegates can choose to make use of pre-arranged transport for arrivals on Tuesday 6 October 2015 or hire a car. Participants planning to stay on to attend the ICDE world conference<\/a> may prefer to hire a car for sightseeing over the weekend on route to Sun City, or return to OR Tambo Airport to arrange transfers<\/a> for the ICDE conference. We recommend that participants who are not familiar with driving in South Africa avoid driving after dark on unfamiliar routes. Please see read our safety tips<\/a>. <\/p>\n

Car rental<\/span><\/h3>\n

Participants should make their own arrangements for car rental. We recommend that you hire a GPS for a nominal cost to assist with navigation. There are two main routes<\/a> 1) Via the Sybrand Van Niekerk Freeway (R24) and then R59 or 2) the N12 and N1. Some routes have toll gates, however the major car rental companies equip their vehicles with the e-tags used for the E-Toll system in Guateng.\n<\/p>\n
