The Opposition to Urban Tolling Alliance (Outa) needs R6 million more to foot the bill for its legal battle against government over e-tolling, according to a report on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

“The funding is coming, we are halfway there,” Outa chairman Wayne Duvenhage told the Business Day.<\/p>\n

“We are confident we will get there in time, it is slower than one would have hoped.”<\/p>\n

Outa needed R10.8 million to cover the costs of two legal cases relating to Gauteng Freeway Improvement Project.<\/p>\n

It has raised R4.8 million so far.<\/p>\n

The e-tolling project was recently halted after Outa filed an urgent application in the High Court in Pretoria.<\/p>\n

The court granted an interdict preventing the SA National Roads Agency Limited from levying or collecting e-tolls pending the outcome of a judicial review.<\/p>\n
