A survey of road users revealed that 80 percent found the e-toll administration service “very poor”, the SA Chamber of Commerce and Industry (Sacci) said on Tuesday.<\/p>\n
“The gross majority of the respondents indicated that the level of service for the e-toll administration was ‘very poor’, 80.5 percent,” CEO Neren Rau said in a statement.<\/p>\n
Sacci was concerned about this. More than 6000 road users were surveyed to give input to the Gauteng e-toll review panel.<\/p>\n
A mere 0.8 percent said the e-toll service was “good” and 0.3 percent said “very good”.<\/p>\n
In the comments section of the survey, the phrase “not pay” appeared 585 times, “never pay” appeared 192 times, and “refuse to pay” 72 times.<\/p>\n
“Problems persist despite the significant time and resources already allocated to the system.<\/p>\n
“The Sacci position remains that a fuel levy is a more efficient mechanism to fund road infrastructure expansion and maintenance.”<\/p>\n
