Transnet Port Terminals has doubled down on its decision to implement a new booking system at the Port of Port Elizabeth despite calls from organised business to suspend the system until the countrywide logistics crisis is resolved.
A storm has erupted at Gqeberha’s harbour over Transnet’s new truck booking system, with transporters criticising delays and increased costs while the port authority maintains that the change is necessary and will be replicated at the Port of Ngqura soon.
