KwaZulu-Natal Transport MEC Siboniso Duma is considering a ban on trucks using the R34 near Ulundi due to repeated deadly crashes. The road, heavily used by coal trucks, was the site of a tragic bus accident that killed ten people yesterday. The bus was carrying EFF supporters returning to Vryheid from a Youth Day rally in Durban. Elvis Presslin spoke to Gavin Kelly, CEO of the Road Freight Association, to discuss this further

Gavin Kelly is the Chief Executive of the Nuffield Foundation and has spent the past 30 years of his career putting Britain's economic inactivity problem  under a microscope.  For Gavin, one of the main problems is the nearly 1 million young people who are not in education, employment or training. They are the ones being left behind and their numbers are rising. But what can be done to solve this?  The Nuffield Foundation is an independent charitable trust funding research that informs social policy, primarily in education, welfare, and justice. The Foundation is also the founder and co-funder of three research centres - the Nuffield Council on Bioethics, the Ada Lovelace Institute, and the Nuffield Family Justice Observatory.

Die Padvragvereniging in die buurland het alle maatskappye wat 'n derdeparty-operateur kan word, aangemoedig om die onlangs vrygestelde Netwerkverklaring te bestudeer en met die Departement van Vervoer in gesprek te tree om spoorwegbedrywighede weer op 'n lewensvatbare en doeltreffende grondslag te kry. Die uitvoerende hoof van die vereniging, Gavin Kelly sê daar is baie geleenthede vir padvervoer-operateurs...

Economists say South African motorists will have to tighten their belts as the price of fuel increased today. Both grades of petrol increased by 82 cents per litre, while diesel went up by R1.01 and R1.05 cents per litre. The increasses come as millions of South Africans struggle to keep their heads above the proverbial water, with the country's ever-rising cost of living and continuing load shedding. The increases have sparked concerns from ordinary South Africans, with households expected to fork out R1.29 cents more for illuminating paraffin at retail level, among other expences. For more on this Elvis Presslin spoke to Road Freight Association CEO, Gavin Kelly

Die Padvragvereniging sê hy is bekommerd oor vertragings by Transnet se Pier 2-vrageindpunt by die Durbanse hawe. Die hawe-operateur het Dinsdag aan klante gesê die tekort aan toerusting soos oorbruggingsdraers belemmer herwinningsoperasies en dienslewering by die eindpunt, weens oponthoude en gure weer. Die vereniging se uitvoerende hoof, Gavin Kelly, het aan die SABC gesê die finansiële en bedryfsgevolge van hierdie vertragings sal eers later die maand of vroeg in Februarie duideliker wees.

Die Padvragvereniging het die publikasie van die Transnet-netwerkverklaring oor die spoornetwerk in Suid-Afrika verwelkom. Die vereniging se uitvoerende hoof, Gavin Kelly, moedig alle ondernemings aan wat 'n derdeparty-operateur kan word, om die verklaring te bestudeer en om met die vervoerdepartement in gesprek te tree om spoorbedrywighede weer 'n lewensvatbare en doeltreffende diens te maak. Hy sê daar sal baie geleenthede vir padvervoer wees.

Gavin Kelly, CEO of the Road Freight Association, joins Zain Johnson to discuss the impact of Mozambique's political crisis on regional trade and transport. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Le Mozambique attend toujours les résultats définitifs de ses élections générales du 9 octobre. Le Conseil constitutionnel doit les annoncer cette semaine. Les résultats provisoires sont toujours contestés par le candidat de l'opposition, Venâncio Mondlane, qui entretient depuis deux mois une vive protestation. Routes bloquées, frontières fermées, l'impact est important pour les exportations de matières premières de la région. Principal pays touché par l'instabilité mozambicaine : l'Afrique du Sud voisine et notamment son secteur du chrome. Extrait dans le nord-est du pays, c'est par le port de Maputo, la capitale du Mozambique, que ce minerai est exporté. Or, depuis le début de la crise, le poste frontière de Lebombo, entre les deux pays, est régulièrement fermé au fret.Cette situation a notamment fait l'objet d'une rencontre ministérielle entre les deux pays, la semaine passée, à Malelane, en Afrique du Sud. Dans un communiqué conjoint, Maputo et Pretoria, se sont engagés à « sécuriser les infrastructures […] afin de garantir un minimum de perturbations du commerce régional et transfrontalier ».Selon, Gavin Kelly, président de l'Association sud-africaine du fret routier, la fermeture de la frontière mozambicaine coûte chaque jour 550 000 dollars à l'économie d'Afrique du Sud.En août, les exportations sud-africaines de chrome dépassaient le million et demi de tonnes, selon la Bourse de Shanghai. Leur niveau annuel avait jusque-là atteint des records, mais la crise mozambicaine risque d'enrayer cette hausse.L'Eswatini cherche d'autres routes pour son sucreAutre secteur en difficulté : le sucre de l'Eswatini. Voisin du Mozambique, dépourvu d'accès à la mer, ce petit pays d'Afrique australe utilise le port de Maputo, pour ses exportations. Les blocages routiers de l'autre côté de la frontière ont déjà causé de nombreuses perturbations, selon l'ESA, l'Association du sucre de l'Eswatini.Les producteurs songent à se replier sur le port de Durban, au nord de l'Afrique du Sud. « Mais cela coûtera plus cher, explique Nontobeko Mabuza, responsable de plaidoyer à l'Esa. Et cela mettra à rude épreuve nos infrastructures de transport » conclut-elle.Le sucre représente le deuxième produit d'exportation de l'Eswatini. L'année dernière, 26 000 tonnes ont été envoyées à l'étranger, notamment aux États-Unis, pour 305 millions de dollars.

Die Padvragvereniging sê Suid-Afrika moet voorrang gee aan diplomatieke pogings om die krisis in Mosambiek op te los. Politieke onrus ontwrig belangrike handelsroetes, veral die hawe van Maputo, en dit stel nywerhede wat van hierdie voorraadketting afhanklik is in gevaar. Die uitvoerende hoof van die vereniging, Gavin Kelly, versoek president Cyril Ramaphosa om in te gryp om bestendigheid te verseker, om te voorkom Suid-Afrika en die SAOG-streek stort ekonomies in duie.

South Africa's Lebombo border post, a critical trade gateway with Mozambique, has partially reopened after a brief closure due to violent protests over Mozambique's election outcomes. The unrest, which saw buildings and vehicles torched, prompted the Border Management Authority to shut down the port of entry. The freight sector, heavily reliant on this border post, is still reeling from the disruption. Elvis Presslin spoke to Gavin Kelly, CEO of the Road Freight Association

The Road Freight Association is warning of dangerous conditions on the roads due to recent snowfall across the country. A severe snowstorm brought the KwaZulu-Natal province to a standstill on Saturday, leaving thousand of commuters stranded.The N3 highway, a critical transportation artery, was transformed into a winter wonderland, but also a hazardous obstacle course. Motorists were forced to endure a night in their vehicles as the route became impassable due to unusually thick snow.

The Road Freight Association (RFA) has raised concern about the recent Cabinet announced by President Cyril Ramaphosa. The Association says the new Transport Minister Barbara Creecy and her deputy, Mkhuleko Hlengwa may lack experience in transport and the road freight supply chain. The Association is urging the new Ministers to build on existing efforts to address the logistics crisis and turn around ailing state-owned entities like Transnet.

The controversial e-tolls on Gauteng highways were finally terminated at midnight on Thursday putting an end to a system many motorists had refused to buy into and pay for in many years. Transport Minister Sindiswa Chikunga and Gauteng Premier Panyaza Lesufi led the celebrations as the government officially terminated the e-tolls. On Wednesday, Chikunga confirmed that e-tolls would be scrapped but said motorists would still be expected to pay their outstanding debts. The Organization Undoing Tax Abuse - OUTA- - however maintains that motorists will not be liable to pay outstanding eToll debt.  Sebenzile Nkambule spoke to Gavin Kelly, CEO of the Road Freight Association for their reaction....

Die Padvragvereniging sê die voortdurende styging in brandstofpryse lei tot onvermydelike kostestyging in vervoer en logistiek. Petrol kos tot 1 Suid-Afrikaanse rand 21 sent per liter meer terwyl diesel en paraffien ook duurder is. Die vereniging se uitvoerende hoof, Gavin Kelly, sê padvragmaatskappye sal nou hulle pryse moet verhoog omdat die dieselprys aanhoudend styg:

The South African National Roads Agency Limited, Sanral has announced an increase in toll fees. South African motorists will pay an additional 6.25% for their toll fees as of March. Will the new fees take a "toll" on the pockets of motorists, commuters and the freight industry? To answer this and more, Elvis Presslin spoke to the CEO of the Road Freight Association, Gavin Kelly

The South African Department of Mineral Resources and Energy (DMRE) this week revealed that 70 fuel stations across South Africa are selling diluted diesel to profit from the rising price of fuel. The diesel is allegedly mixed with illuminating paraffin. The 70 petrol stations accused of the alleged mixing were identified between April and December 2023. Samples from these diesel providers failed purity tests. To look at the dangers and how the trucking industry is tackling the problem we spoke to Gavin Kelly, CEO of the Road Freight Association...

Die Suid-Afrikaanse Padvragvereniging se uitvoerende hoof, Gavin Kelly, sê die vereniging is steeds bekommerd oor die globale faktore wat druk plaas op petroleum-gebaseerde brandstof en op die oomblik lyk dit asof dit die prys laat daal. Kelly sê Suid-Afrika se grootste uitdaging is om die Suid-Afrikaanse rand se waarde teenoor die dollar te verander, want dit is die geldeenheid waarin die land tans petroleum-gebaseerde brandstofprodukte aankoop:

South African ports have been grappling with high levels of congestion and long queues of trucks waiting to enter the ports, which has now reached crisis proportions. To deal with the congestion in Richards Bay, Transnet has suspended processing trucks carrying coal. In Durban harbour, more than 70,000 containers are anchored off the coast of Durban with a three-week waiting period for offloading. This backlog, Transnet says, would likely only be cleared by February or March 2024. The state-owned enterprise said in a statement released earlier this week that it was implementing “a number of urgent interventions to address the backlogs at the Port of Durban and to ease the congestion at Richards Bay to minimise the impact on the South African economy” However, trust in South African ports has already suffered a blow been with Maersk, the global shipping giant, deciding that it will ditch Cape Town as a port of call in favour of Mauritius. In an interview with Biznews, Gavin Kelly, CEO of the Road Freight Association in South Africa said the issues at harbours have been coming for several years. Warnings have come from various industries, including mining for the past five to six years, signalling the impending collapse of core export corridors. He criticised Transnet for not foreseeing the disaster and stressed that South Africa, currently home to the largest port in Africa in Durban, risks losing this status. Kelly said a couple of years ago, exporters used to laugh at Dar-es-Salaam where it took 21 days to clear a container out of the port, it is now down to seven days. South Africa is going in the opposite direction. “We can no longer let state-owned entities that have proven to be absolutely useless to run these sort of crucial logistical nodal points and infrastructure points,” he said. These key points should be given to the private sector to run.

Gavin Kelly is The Chief Executive Officer at Road Freight Association and he joins John to bring a status update on the backlog created at the Durban port due to equipment breakdowns.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The national living wage is going up to at least £11 an hour from next April. Although it's claimed the rise will help two million of the lowest paid workers, many campaigners are saying it's still not enough for a decent standard of living in the current economic climate. The Real Living Wage is one alternative. It's a voluntary commitment from employers to pay their workers enough to meet their everyday needs, and unlike the government's living wage it's calculated according to the actual cost of living. We spoke to Sheila Blackburn and Margaret Beckett MP in 2021 about the history of the fight for a government-set minimum wage. We also spoke to Lola McEvoy back in 2019 and Gavin Kelly about the Real Living Wage and why the campaign has been so successful to date.GuestsDr Sheila Blackburn, Historian, University of LiverpoolMargaret Beckett MP, Former Secretary of State for Trade and Industry (1995-1997)Gavin Kelly, Chair of the Living Wage Commission (@GavinJKelly1)Lola McEvoy, Formerly of the Living Wage Foundation (@Lola__McEvoy)More InformationListen to RTBC 78 Living wage against the machine (March 2019)Listen to RTBC 221 First they ignore you : Part four - the fight for a minimum wage (Dec 2021)Learn more about the Living Wage Foundation Hosted on Acast.

An overall feeling of dismay is probably the best way to describe how transport operators are processing the latest diesel price hike on Wednesday. While petrol increased by 51c/l, it's the continuing hike in diesel - this month by R1.40/l - that will be straining the economic lifeblood of our economy. From crime and looting, to road blockages and a dysfunctional ports system, the road freight industry has been licking its wounds for some time now. Gavin Kelly, chief executive at the Road Freight Association (RFA) tells BizNews correspondent Michael Appel that operators can't keep on absorbing these increasing costs so it will, inevitably, filter down to an already overstretched consumer.

Gavin Kelly, uitvoerende hoof van Road Freight Association gesels oor Transnet se staking en wat die status tans by die hawes is.

Die Padvragvereniging in Suid-Afrika sê die voortgaande styging in die prys van diesel wek kommer. Diesel word tans onderverhaal wat dié maand gelei het tot 'n styging van tussen 10- en 15-sent per liter. Die Departement van Minerale Bronne en Energie sê dieselpryse bly 'n groter kopseer as petrolpryse omdat daar wêreldwyd druk op dieselvoorrade is. Die vereniging se uitvoerende hoof, Gavin Kelly, sê vervoerkoste sal nou styg, wat weer verbruikers sal raak:

Die Padvragvereniging in Suid-Afrika vra vir optrede om aandag te gee aan padongelukke. Die uitvoerende hoof, Gavin Kelly, het 'n beroep op owerhede gedoen om maatreëls in te stel wat ongelukke waarin vragmotors betrokke is, sal verminder. Volgens die vereniging is die meeste ongelukke die gevolg van voertuie wat swak bestuur word. Kelly sê die afdwinging van die wet is die sleutel tot die oplossing van die krisis:

Die Padvragvereniging in Suid-Afrika sê die nood begin druk by verbruikers weens aanvalle op vragmotors regoor die land. Die vereniging het sy kommer uitgespreek oor die voortgesette gewelddadige aanvalle op logistieke voertuie. Die uitvoerende hoof van die vereniging, Gavin Kelly, sê die aanvalle sal op die langtermyn ʼn uitwerking op die ekonomie hê. Volgens Kelly speel vragvervoerdienste 'n beslissende rol in die beweging van goedere en dienste:

Die uitvoerende hoof van die Padvragvereniging in die buurland, Gavin Kelly, sê die plundering en gewelddadige aanvalle op logistieke voertuie met padvrag begin nou om die land se status as 'n beleggingsbestemming en 'n doeltreffende logistieke spilpunt vir buitelandse handelaars, ongedaan te maak. Aanvanklik was daar sporadiese voorvalle op een of twee roetes, maar dit het die norm op alle roetes vir die totale produk-aanbod geword. Kelly sê 80 persent van Suid-Afrika se goedere word per pad vervoer.

Die Padvragvereniging van Suid-Afrika sê hy is besorg oor die uitwerking van bykomende belasting wat op ingevoerde bande na Suid-Afrika gehef word. Die uitvoerende hoof van die agentskap, Gavin Kelly, sê gebaseer op die geprojekteerde styging van 17 persent op vragmotorbande se koste ná landing, word beraam dit sal omgereken ʼn verhoging van ses-persent vir operateurs beteken. Dit is nadat die geprojekteerde band-prysstygings vir Augustus reeds bekend is. Kelly sê vervoermaatskappye kan nie byhou met die immer-stygende bedryfs- en brandstofpryse nie:

Die Padvragvereniging in Suid-Afrika sê enige daling in die brandstofprys sal 'n geweldig positiewe uitwerking hê op vervoerkoste en voorsieningskettings. Data van die Sentrale Energiefonds dui op 'n daling van twee-rand-35-sent per liter vir 95-oktaan loodvrye petrol, en twee-rand-18-sent vir 93-oktaan. Diesel en paraffien kan ook meer as 'n rand goedkoper word. Die vereniging se uitvoerende hoof, Gavin Kelly, sê daar sal vanselfsprekend 'n groter positiewe uitwerking wees op vragvervoer indien die dieselprys net so dramaties soos dié van petrol sal daal:

Government and road freight parties have signed an agreement to end the N3 blockades. The agreement involves an 11-point action plan which aims to addresses key concerns in the industry that have led to the blockades. Business Day TV spoke to Gavin Kelly, CEO of the Road Freight Association for more detail.

Suid-Afrika se Padvragagentskap sê die voortgesette blokkade van sleutel vragroetes dwarsoor die land kos die ekonomie ongeveer 300 miljoen Suid-Afrikaanse rand. Vragmotors het die afgelope week die N3 naby Van Reenenspas in KwaZulu-Natal geblokkeer, uit protes teen die indiensneming van vreemdelinge. Soortgelyke blokkades het verlede jaar plaasgevind, insluitende die N17 en N2 in Noord-Kaapland. Die uitvoerende hoof van die vereniging, Gavin Kelly, sê maatskappye word geteiken en die hele voorsieningsketting is onder beleg:

The logistics industry has taken a hit from the flooding in KwaZulu-Natal. Transnet initially suspended operations as a precaution but the sector remains under strain, with truck movement towards the port halted and several roads either underwater or having sustained significant damage. Business Day TV spoke to Gavin Kelly, CEO of the Road Freight Association and Moshe Motlohi, Transnet National Port Authority Executive for their assessment of the impact of the disaster on logistics and what it means for the province.
