JOHANNESBURG - Gauteng motorists are waking up to e-toll-free roads.
They will no longer be charged as the unpopular scheme takes an off-ramp.
But, while the system is dead, historic debt still remains on the road.
Transport Minister Sindisiwe Chikunga says the user-pay policy remains in place.
Meanwhile, the e-toll infrastructure will be used to fight crime and help with road safety.
This is according to the Gauteng Transport MEC, Kedibone Diale-Tlabela.
