Johannesburg - The Gautrain has created 11 700 direct jobs, Gauteng MEC of local government Qedani Mahlangu said on Tuesday.

She was briefing the media on Gautrain's effect on the province's economy.

She said the project had also created 51 500 direct, indirect and induced jobs.

"Gautrain has always maintained that it is more than just a transport project... Gautrain has presented Gauteng with an opportunity to empower its citizens, and particularly to expand the economic activity of the province," said Mahlangu.

This was a clear indication of the province's commitment to grow Gauteng's economy by eight percent by 2014, she added.
