The Road Accident Fund has received a balloon payment of R2.5 billion for the 2009/2010 financial year to address its liquidity challenges and no further allocation will be made to this agency in the MTEF period. The Department is working towards an objective where all its agencies would be self-reliant and not require funding from the Department. The Gautrain project will not be completed by the targeted date; however, phase 1 of the project which is the section between OR Tambo international airport and Sandton will be completed by September 2010. The Department is working on tightening this time frame and intends to complete it before the indicated month. However the developers were requiring more money to develop tighter targets. Gautrain will operate on a wide gauge compared to the normal trains but will use the same platform to pick up and off load people. An interim measure was to integrate the old and new rail tracks and the goal is to eventually do away with the old.
