Toll tariffs to rise - Sanral

Johannesburg - Toll tariffs would increase in line with the consumer price index (CPI) on May 24, the SA National Roads Agency Limited (Sanral) said on Friday. “Any adjustments to the tariffs are based on the preceding 12 months’ CPI. The average CPI adjustment for Sanral toll tariffs is 5.8 percent,” it said in a statement. Transport Minister Dipuo Peters approved the tariff adjustments, which were gazetted on Friday. The only toll plaza that would not be affected was Swartruggens. “E-toll tariffs in Gauteng became effective in the beginning of December and therefore the first annual adjustment may only be in March 2015,” said Sanral spokesman Vusi Mona. – Sapa
