Head of the SA National Roads Agency Limited Nazir Alli says Gauteng’s planned electronic highway tolling system will benefit motorists.

Alli defended the controversial system.

He says very little is being mentioned about the benefit to motorists, including better roads that will cause less wear and tear on vehicles.

Transport Minister S’bu Ndebele is currently reviewing a proposal on the toll tariffs and has appointed a task team to look at the costs of the system.
