E-TOLL SAGA CONTINUES...
We
are almost approaching the end of April and the e-tolling system which was supposed
to be effective by now is still on hold.
Motorists are still anti- e-tolls because this system will put financial
strain on most people. On Wednesday the price of petrol increased with 71cents
per litre, petrol will now cost R11.94. Motorists travelling from PTA- JHB and
vice versa have to deal with the constant fuel increases as if this isn’t bad
enough they now have to budget for E-toll payments.
Our
national Government hasn’t been using correct communication methods to in form
the public about how the implementation
of e-tolls will affect them. Government
is not willing to consider views and concerns which are being brought forward
by motorists who travel on these routes where e-tolls are to be
implemented. It would put the public at
ease if they where being kept informed regarding agreements and decisions which
government intends to make.
Those
who are affected by this are doing all they can to show government how
seriously unhappy they are about the implementation of e-tolls. Drastic
measures such as Strikes, petitions and
court applications to name a few have been done in order to put emphasize on
how motorists feel about this matter.
It
is unfair when a nations Government tries to force an unjust and unfavored
decision into being. Share your views regarding this matter.
It is realy unfair to us people who work in JHB and have to pay these E-Tolls every month. But Public transport doesnt have to pay anything. The Government should rethink about this, they killing our economy.
