E-toll report will be released on Thursday

The council would present the final report at a briefing in Johannesburg at noon, according to a statement on Wednesday.

 

Makhura appointed the panel on July 17 to examine the economic and social impact of the Gauteng Freeway Improvement Project and the electroni-tolling system set up to fund it.

 

The panel presented the report to Makhura on November 30, but its contents were not made public.

 

There has been a public outcry over the implementation of e-tolls on Gauteng's highways, with many motorists refusing to pay their bills.

 

Panel chairman Prof Muxe Nkondo handed the panel's final report to Makhura in Parktown, Johannesburg, on November 30.
