Deputy President Cyril Ramaphosa will today make an announcement on the tolling of Gauteng’s roads.
The new e-tolls dispensation is the product of extensive public consultation, deliberations within government and approval by Cabinet, according to the Presidency.
The announcement comes as the SA National Roads Agency (SANRAL) has admitted that thousands of motorists are not paying for e-tolls which were developed as part of the Gauteng Freeway Improvement Project.
The Deputy President will be joined by a high-level delegation including the Minister of Transport Dipuo Peters, Minister of Finance Nhlanhla Nene, Gauteng Premier David Makhura, Gauteng MEC’s for Transport and Finance, Ishmael Vadi and Barbara Creecy respectively. – SAnews.gov.za
Here is what the Twitter community thinks of #etolls:
I too take the JZ stance on #etolls, I can't pay for something I did not ask for. Let the Public Protector investigate.
