Transport Minister Dipuo Peters’s announcement that e-tolling of Gauteng’s highways will begin soon has been met with anger and sadness.
The DA plans to constitutionally challenge e-tolls in the high court, claiming the Bill was incorrectly tagged.
Outa says the e-tolling saga has caused Jacob Zuma to miss out on a chance to show the country what consultation and participation actually means.
The EFF has announced that it will be marching against e-tolls on Friday this week, dismissing any mention of the DA’s commitment to the same cause.
While we can forgive the ignorance of musicians and other artists, President Jacob Zuma’s attempt at humour is not funny, writes Takura Zhangazha.
Outa says it is too "constrained by shortages of funds" to appeal the Supreme Court of Appeal’s dismissal of its challenge to e-tolls.
The Opposition to Urban Tolling Alliance has rejected claims that it is encouraging Gauteng motorists to break the law.
Parliament’s transport portfolio committee says Cosatu and Outa’s call for motorists not to pay for e-tolls in Gauteng defies the Constitution.
The Supreme Court of Appeal has dismissed an appeal by the Opposition to Urban Tolling Alliance in its e-toll challenge.
Transport Minister Dipuo Peters has spoken out against billboards commissioned by the DA, which poke fun at the ANC and the tolling saga.
The decision by President Jacob Zuma to sign the contentious e-toll Bill into law will not deter Cosatu’s election campaign for the ANC.
President Jacob Zuma has signed e-tolls into law – despite the ANC’s campaign to avoid damaging Acts before next year’s elections.
President Jacob Zuma has signed into law the Transport Laws and Related Matters Amendment Bill, giving the go-ahead to e-tolling in Gauteng.
The South African National Roads Agency has again been downgraded by ratings agency Moody’s thanks to prolonged battles over e-tolls.
The DA’s claim that R473.2-million will be spent on communication with e-toll account holders and transgressors is "fallacious", says Sanral.
Critics might argue that the deputy president is one of the walking dead after last year’s Mangaung conference.
Sanral has welcomed the DA’s announcement that it would donate R1-million to Outa to help continue the legal battle against e-tolls.
Outa may have to drop its court challenge to e-tolling on Gauteng’s highways if it does not raise an extra R1-million in three weeks.
Cosatu has been asked to make an upfront payment of R200 000, says the Johannesburg Metro police despite the union’s refusal.
Cosatu says it is considering approaching the North Gauteng High Court after a lower court halted its e-toll protest.
A change requiring the minister to seek approval for fees has been rescinded, with no reason given.
Cosatu is still contemplating whether to go ahead with a drive-slow protest against the e-tolling of Gauteng freeways.
The South African National Roads Agency Limited says a proposed toll system in the Winelands in the Western Cape will not impact on the poor.
Apart from Gauteng’s e-tolls and the Cape Winelands project, Sanral has plans to toll more roads across South Africa.
The South African National Roads Agency Limited says the planned toll roads in the Western Cape will create about 5 000 jobs, says a newspaper report.
The building of toll roads in the Western Cape could come back to bite the ANC as the DA has vowed to use this in its general elections campaign.
The South African National Roads Agency says it wants to give Gauteng motorists a timely warning this week that e-tolls would kick in soon if adopted.
Transport Minister Ben Martins says South Africa needs to develop its shipping industry in order to create jobs.
Cosatu is prepared to fight against Gauteng e-tolls, high electricity prices and corruption, says Zwelinzima Vavi.
The Congress of South African Trade Unions says it is planning renewed protests against e-tolling.
Gauteng road users have been urged to not buy e-tags after the high court in Pretoria dismissed an application to scrap e-tolls.
It appears the electronic tolling of Gauteng’s freeways will indeed go ahead in 2013 after the North Gauteng High Court ruled in its favour.
