The app is currently being redesigned and several improvements were made in 2022. A major new feature is the ability to report potholes, intended to support the Vala Zonke pothole repair programme launched by SANRAL in collaboration with the Department of Transport.

The app saw an increase in both users and top-ups over the 2022/23 financial year.

SANRAL’s cashless and ticketless parking system uses a vehicle licence number (VLN) to activate parking booms at selected facilities, with payment linked to a registered user’s mobility account. Users can activate the service on the SANRAL app.

The solution is currently active at 21 parking facilities in Gauteng, with national expansion as an end goal.

Self-service
terminals piloted

SANRAL has completed a proof of concept (POC) for the implementation of self-service terminals (SSTs) designed to encourage the adoption of toll tags, vehicle registration and account top-ups by our toll concessionaires. Five strategically placed terminals were installed on the Bakwena and TRAC N4 routes in November 2022.

The SSTs offer a range of functions, including the ability to register a SANRAL account, make
top-ups and payments, and add vehicles and tags.

During the December period, the terminals proved to be highly popular with road users. SANRAL will evaluate the need for SSTs across the country and begin to deploy them at various sites.
