Toll Fees effective from March 1, 2024

In a not so surprising turn of events, the ANC government has made a U-turn on its stance regarding the contentious 
E-Toll scheme.

Initially promises of refunds to those who had paid under the failed system were made by the Premier. In a recent interview however, Mampho Modise, the deputy director-general of public finance at the National Treasury, has reportedly disclosed that Gauteng has now agreed to the collection of the E-Toll debt, prompting vigilant oversight from organizations like OUTA (Organisation Undoing Tax Abuse).

Municipalities are belatedly recognizing the potential adverse effects of the AARTO Act (Administrative Adjudication of Road Traffic Offences Act) on their revenue streams and the future of local traffic departments. This realization further exacerbates the nation's already chaotic traffic situation. Predictably, the National AARTO rollout has been delayed once again, showcasing governmental inefficiency and a familiar shortage of funds.
