It is unfortunate that the SA National Roads Agency Ltd (Sanral) is only known for the Gauteng e-toll project, chief executive Nazir Ali said on Monday.

"Eighty-four percent of our business is non-toll; there is only 16 percent of our business which is a toll road portfolio," he said speaking at The New Age's business breakfast in Midrand.

"That toll road portfolio does make a large contribution to the well-being of our entire national road network."
