President Cyril Ramaphosa has demanded accountability from those responsible for the severe truck congestion that has crippled KwaZulu-Natal's N2 highway leading to the Port of Richards Bay.
Ramaphosa travelled to Richards Bay to assess the challenges plaguing the freight rail and port capacity of Transnet.
He said that a thorough analysis of the state-owned logistics utility’s issues had been conducted and asserted that "heads must roll" for the company's numerous problems.
Ramaphosa expressed confidence in resolving the backlog promptly and emphasised the private sector's crucial role in achieving this goal.
He envisions collaborations and concessions involving private entities and Transnet to manage specific operational aspects at the Richards Bay port precinct. Source: TimesLive
