Stakeholders in the freight industry say the road infrastructure in the country is not being maintained adequately to endure the high volumes of truck movement.

They claim it is time to migrate 20% of the country’s freight industry from road to rail, through the technologically advanced method of goods transportation – RailRunner.

They say increased use of the system will greatly benefit the country’s economy and address a myriad of challenges such as reducing road carnage. The president of TASA, Mary Phadi, says it will save the country billions of rands, that go into maintaining the under-utilised railway system across the country.

The Spokesperson for North West Department of Transport Management, Oshebeng Koonyaditse says fewer trucks on the roads, might help to reduce road carnages.
