	Railroad Association of South Africa
		All developments and experiments made in other countries are closely watched by the authorities in South Africa, and the future development of the resources of this country will undoubtedly be assisted, or even made possible, by an extended use of the valuable forces now available in the form of mechanical haulage and mechanical farming operations.
		The success of any road transport service almost entirely depends upon the provision of good roads, and this road question forces itself irresistibly to the front, as no matter how perfect the organisation may be, or the vehicle used, if the roads are not good the service will of necessity be slow, inefficient and uneconomical.
		In spite of the large sums spent annually in South Africa in building new railways it is impossible to provide communication to many districts which call for assistance in their struggle for development, nor can the country continue indefinitely to bear the costs of the deficits on developing railway lines.

	Railroad Association of South Africa
		At the passing of South Africa’s first ten years of democratic and all-inclusive government in 2004, this Association was encouraged at developments which seemed to indicate that fundamental changes in the transport environment were finally about to take place.
		Unfortunately however, a co-ordinated national transport policy was not introduced and the pendulum which had for so many years favoured the state-operated railway, swung in favour of private road operators.
		Long-distance road transport and road infrastructure degradation, uncontrolled taxi operations in urban areas and the decline of rail transport, are all symptomatic of the effect of having freed transport to compete in an unregulated, and uncontrolled environment — largely devoid of standards befitting a modern and advanced country.
