The New Age reports that the SA National Roads Agency (Sanral) has denied claims made by labour federation Cosatu that the e-tolling system would result in job losses for people working in toll plazas.
The claims was made by the labour federation’s KwaZulu-Natal secretary Edwin Mkhize during a picket at the Marianhill toll plaza in Pinetown on Thursday. Mkhize said: “We have noticed that there is a diplomatic strategy by Sanral to spread e-tolls.
