The e-toll system was meant to be scrapped on 31 December 2022, but the Gauteng government says this has been delayed into the new year.

In a statement issued on Saturday, the provincial government explained that an agreement with National Treasury had not yet been concluded to support the deactivation of e-tolls. "… 31 December 2022, was pencilled as the day to deactivate the e-tolls billing system. However, due to the need to finalise key components of the MOU between the national government and the provincial government, the matter will be finalised in the new year ," the statement read.

The SA National Road Agency has struggled to recover costs of the Gauteng Freeway Improvement Project through e-tolls with many motorists failing to pay them. The e-tolls also faced opposition from civil society groups like OUTA and labour federation Cosatu. This ultimatelyLast year, at the tabling of the medium-term budget policy statement, Finance Minister Enoch Godongwana announced that government would take on 70% of Sanral's debt while the province would take on 30%.
