Tolling of the national roads essential for maintenance

Tolling of South Africa’s national roads was essential to ensure the upkeep and maintenance of the popular trade and holiday routes, special purpose vehicle Bakwena Platinum Corridor Concessionaire said on Wednesday. Bakwena, which was responsible for 385 km of roads on the N1 and N4, was required to toll the roads to fund its responsibility under a 30-year concession with the South African National Roads Agency Limited (Sanral).
