SCROLL
SANRAL’s key financial information reflects the Agency’s performance and fiscal health during the reporting year 2022/23.
We spend a significant portion of our income on construction and maintenance projects on both toll and non-toll roads.
Toll road expenditure
Expenditure on toll roads comprises spending on capital projects, maintenance of existing roads and other operating procedures. In addition to this, SANRAL’s tolled roads also incur a number of financial costs. In 2023, SANRAL allocated a higher budget for road maintenance compared to the previous two years, while reducing capital expenditure, finance costs and expenditure on other operations.
SANRAL allocates its annual income to various direct and capital expenditure categories. The main expenditure categories are shown below. In 2022/23, SANRAL also used an additional R8.9 billion to settle loans received from the Department of Transport when they became due. The Agency repaid debt redemptions of R8.870 billion in 2023. All debts were settled on time.
