The document discusses the impact of e-tolls on development in Gauteng, South Africa. It summarizes that e-tolls were implemented to fund the Gauteng Freeway Improvement Project (GFIP) which upgraded roads to support economic growth. The GFIP reduced congestion and improved access, benefiting commercial and residential development. Studies found the GFIP created jobs and increased GDP, and that e-tolls provided savings through reduced travel costs and times that outweighed toll fees. The conclusion is that while e-tolls have some negative costs, the GFIP and tolls overall benefit the Gauteng economy.
