South Africa's government scraps e-tolls for Gauteng's freeways in April, ending a contentious issue since 2013.
South Africa's government announced that electronic tolls (e-tolls) for Gauteng's freeways will be scrapped in April, ending a contentious issue that began in December 2013. The decision follows years of opposition from various organizations, including the ANC in Gauteng and labor union Cosatu, as motorists refused to pay their e-toll bills. The Gauteng government will spend 4.1 billion rand over the next four years to maintain the province's freeways as part of the process to end e-tolling.
