The South African National Roads Agency (SANRAL), a South African parastatal responsible for the management, maintenance and development of South Africa's proclaimed National Road network which includes many (not all!) National ("N") and some Provincial and Regional ("R") route segments, has announced that toll fee collections at the N2 oThongathi north ramps will resume on 15 January 2024. This follows the reopening of the M4 Tongaat River Bridge on 14 December 2023.
“Road users now have a choice to either use the N2 or the M4 and, with the reopening, we hope that communities and businesses of Zimbali, Ballito, Salt Rock, Shaka’s Head and other locations within KwaDukuza Local Municipality can once again resume normal operations,” said Dumisani Nkabinde, SANRAL’s Eastern Regional Manager.
The M4 Tongaat River Bridge suffered major damage during the devastating floods of April 2022 and motorists had to use the alternative N2 national highway. The collection of toll fees on the N2 oThongathi north ramps were therefore suspended as per a Government Gazette issued on 17 March 2023.
