harumutasa Zimbabwe its +150%

TheMikeAppel Where is our road taxes included in every liter of fuel we pay?

The article does not expound on the quoted stats which is a pity!?

harumutasa what about Zim,be silent

Stop building roads and start building co-shared transport means.

ANC?thank u

At least it's not 100% like Zimbabwe

They will only be fixed 2 months or a month before the elections...it happens all the time.

Compare to?

🇿🇼someone tell them

100% of SA CBD’s in towns are ruined. 60% roads - ruined. SAA is ruined. ESKOM is ruined. Transnet - ruined. Denel - ruined. SABC - ruined. SA University ratings - ruined. Everything ANC touches - ruined. Guess what will happen to the farms, once they’ve been expropriated.

Most of our roads are never in good condition

Makes you wonder where all that road levy money is really going. looters

Another outstanding ANC success story! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Hey almost like pass mark 40% good enough lol

I’m staying in Crystalpark Benoni, hell are those roads. I’m so disappointed! They keep on patching them and after a month here comes big potholes

TrafficRTMC Totally agree. Cannot see road markings or lanes / stop signs.

They say that in overseas you drive on the left but in SA we drive on what's left!!!!!

We will 'France' South Africa.

Can't think of one thing that MYANC has done right. They are a disaster for SA

Hard to enjoy the benefits of being a tax payer, ANC Gov has dismally failed South Africans.

harumutasa And that is the most developed nation in Africa 😂😂😂 I better stick to my Kenya at least only 40% not 60% like the Ramaphosa

harumutasa Yakatonaka iyi.....ki Zimbabwe those anenge atori ma best roads😂

I think that the report is rather misleading. Is it 60% of the surface of the entire road network? Then, that is untrue. If that is the observed measure, the number will be 10%. I travel 15000kms monthly on N, R and D roads and I don't always see what is on the picture.

Hev u been to Zim

Are these surfaced roads or this stats includes gravel roads? Where are you basing this info from?

Tenderpreneurs damaged our roads for their own benefits. Malema did it in Limpopo

And all 60% are outside CapeTown! Cool hey!

That's because the ANCGovt allows the FuelLevy, which is supposed to maintain our roads, to be sucked into a black hole of extravagance, waste, corruption & looting by ANCDeployees!

That's terrible but it's like that in most countries. It seems most of the counties believe in austerity and it's biggest causality is infrastructure.

Cadres are in in a looting competition

TrafficRTMC What are the conditions of National, Provincial, Regional and local roads in our country? The breakdown is very important for everyone.

😂😂😂😂 😂😂😂😂 😂😂😂😂

The ANC government allows an academic pass at 30%. By that rationale or roads are amazing

It just gets better and better.

Hope Malema didn't built 10% of those...

Very poor please someone help us tuuU.

Are the gravel roads in the rural areas included?

SANRAL_za can u plz explain...

Abramjee The ANC has destroyed even the little infrastructure that apartheid had built for white folks. They went backwards. All of this is because people in government say no project will go ahead with them “eating” first. Corruption.

And the ANC and DA will start blaming EFF for poor roads as if the chow the road with soup..

Abramjee And they were fine before 94.

Where's our enormous tax money going

Incompetence of MYANC government across all three spheres

Poor administration, maladministration, corruption and collision in the awarding of government tenders. This results from all the listed aspects!!

...And it will never get any better with ANC still in power.

Sanral is sending all etolls money back to Austria.

In a village near suncity in rustenburg the community is fixing potholes with cement... That village is surrounded by resorts and mines but they do nothing

Mahikeng 100%

They get tenders and hire cheap labour the rest end in their pockets 😷. We not near to end corruption in this country. No political party will change this people are corrupt to the core

Makwena_Lapane Mthatha is one of them, I am frastrated right now I am about to go down there my car will never find peace at all.

And they will be doing roadblocks and impounding cars for failing roadworthiness tests. We got a shitty gwavament🤣🤣🤣🤣

25 years of ANC in power failing to renovate our country. Come May 2019

Compare to which country?

The M2 Bridge is so wobbly

so?

mabasotf Come to Nigeria 😂

Only 60%? Which country ru referring to?

More like 90%

Someone must be fired or arrested and this will stop.

Durban has the worst pot holes. Trucks destroy everything.

While we paying thousands of rands to RAF per annum, instead of using that money to maintain our roads Or even use it to start state (bank) owned insurance company than this lack of thinking

I'm are truck drive:Let me take this opportunity to thanks S.A government for the beautiful national roads. Ayibaba if you going out off the country you see horrible roads

Take a trip and see how majority of potholes are being repaired-you will be shocked,very cheap but the money for proper repairs has been paid.

It's more than 60%. We have even lost out top position of best roads or even free ways in Africa. Namibia is number 1.

Where; urban, national or rural?

More work for construction😀

In Mthatha it's 100%

Abramjee NVMcKenzie

where is the gold ? those roads should be paved in gold and diamonds ? godbless south africa 🇿🇦 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇷🇺🇬🇷🇷🇸

True

eNCA is forever defending white privilege n focuses on black faults.

Everything the MYANC touches turns to 💩. Viva ✊🏿 Comrades ✊🏿

SANRAL will soon claim that unpaid toll fees are the cause and that the situation will worsen. Thank you MyANC!

Try Mpumalanga, almost all.

60%.....ok

80 %

60% is an understatement, it has become somewhat of a norm that our cars mags and tyres are to be replaced now and then thanks to poorly maintained roads

No surprise there

Like all the government businesses 🙄

Take a guess where all the road maintenance moneys gone to

It's more than that, our roads are not safe

Ask ramaposa to come and drive on them Senekal Welkom Reitz Frankfort Viljoenskroon Disgrace

Whites please put your hands up, its obviously your doing this👋

come to Zim then you will appreciate that SA is heaven

Not in Malawi?

In mpumalanga u might think they wanna break Guinness World record by having potholes all over that province'

Dont worry, it will be fixed just before elections.

MYANC CyrilRamaphosa JacksonMthembu GwedeMantashe1 tito_mboweni really depresses 😡😱😱😱😡😡

None of us are surprised, that's am getting this as my next car

Not correct, it is over that

Another Proudly ANC Initiative

We're aware, don't you have positive news for South Africa just for a change ? Bring us more success stories & useful news thank you.

..everything & everywhere in SA infrastructure is deteriorating No proper maintenance & governance Money is there but wasted & looted We need a change People should stop voting for past history & slogans & vote for service delivery The present anc govt has failed dismally

Comrades must eat...

Nothing new

Abramjee Its cause those potholepreneurs come to our areas and dig those holes.

Mpumalanga probably takes about 40% of that.

Abramjee Don’t worry traffic officers are keeping our roads safe at least! Arrive alive

'10th most paved road network in the world'. When you look at the govt and the unions, you realize that the infrastructure in SA is too good for them. Currently, there is a realignment to an infrastructure that is more reflective of the quality of leadership and followership.

Abramjee made in south africa crap

Even in the very Gauteng where we are expected to pay eTolls

It has to be more than 60%

Like ANC in poor condition
