The UFS received this award for the taxi terminal that was constructed on the Main Campus in Bloemfontein. Typology Architects is the architect of this project. The UFS was one of thirteen entries that participated in the 2009 VIA Merit Awards Programme. Mr Nico Janse van Rensburg from the UFS says that this award is a milestone for the university, because it is a good example of an excellent design that is functional for the users’ needs at a very cost-effective budget.
