Sanrals New Policy Sparks Outrage: Roadside Businesses Fight Back

South Africas National Roads Agency, Sanral, is facing backlash for a new policy that aims to control private land near national roads, impose strict rules on businesses, and levy various fees. This move is reminiscent of their controversial e-toll system in Gauteng, which led to massive protests. Roadside business owners are now pushing back, arguing that Sanral is overstepping its mandate. Critics suspect the agency is trying to boost its finances, potentially targeting new areas like electric vehicle charging stations. With toll fees increasing, public anger is rising, threatening another round of resistance unless Sanral addresses the concerns of those affected.
