The good and bad about e-tolls

accreditation
E-TOLLING has come into effect on the 185 km of roads covered by the Gauteng Freeway Improvement Project on Tuesday 3 December 2013.

Amid growing concerns about the rising costs of living in South Africa, financial services specialists firm Direct Axis has helped place context around e-tolls and how it impact our daily finances.

The infographic below looks at the direct costs of driving on Gauteng’s toll roads and evaluates how the fees motorists pay compare to other countries around the world.

As well as looking at a rand cost per kilometre, the proportion of salaries that would be spent on toll fees for a daily 80km commute, is also calculated.
