South Africa: Motorists Will Not Pay More Due to GFIP Road Repairs

press release

Transport Minister Sibusiso Ndebele has assured South Africans that motorists will not pay more in toll tariffs as a result of the warping that has occurred on a small section of the Gauteng Freeway Improvement Project (GFIP).

"The warping was identified by SANRAL in October 2010, well before the media reports, and a task team of pavement and material experts have been attending to the matter. Any defects on the GFIP toll network will not result in an increase in toll tariffs," Minister Ndebele said.
