According to ECR NewsWatch, the South African National Roads Agency says it's ready to resume toll fee collections at the N2 oThongathi and uMvoti toll plaza.

This follows lengthy discussions with the KZN government, mayors, business chambers, taxi and traditional councils earlier this month.

There has had a massive uproar from people especially those who use that part of the N2 almost every day.

Here's what Darren Maule and the breakfast team had to say about this.

Sanral's Eastern Regional Manager, Dumisani Nkabinde, says they need to start collecting fees again to maintain our national roads.

Toll fee collections at uMvoti and oThongathi will resume on Saturday, the 1st of April.
