Sanral increases national toll fees 5.8%
Toll tariffs on national roads will be adjusted in line with the consumer price index (CPI) on May 24, the South African National Roads Agency Limited (Sanral) said on Friday, hastening to add that the e-toll tariffs on the Gauteng Freeway Improvement Project would not be adjusted “this time”.
Sanral said in a statement that the tariff increases were based on the preceding 12 months’ CPI and, as such, the tariffs would be adjusted upwards by 5.8%.
“E-toll tariffs in Gauteng became effective in the beginning of December 2013 and, therefore, the first yearly adjustment may only be in March 2015,” Sanral communications manager Vusi Mona outlined.
The gazetting of the adjustments on Friday followed an approval of the tariffs – which were proposed by Sanral – by Transport Minister Dipuo Peters in early May.
There would be adjustments of tariffs on the N3 toll road between Johannesburg and Durban and on the N4 highway between the Mozambican border and the Botswana border, as well as on the toll road sections of the N1, N2, N17 and R30.
There would be no increase on the Swartruggens toll plaza.
“We use the inflation rate as a guide, as we at the national roads agency do not want to increase road use costs beyond what is reasonable,” Mona noted.
