NHAI likely to discontinue fixed toll tax at Delhi-Gurugram Expressway

Currently, for a single journey, a car is charged Rs 80 while a bus or truck pays Rs 235 at the Kherki Dhala tolling booth

Commuters may no longer have to pay the 'fixed toll' charge on the Delhi-Gurugram Expressway as the National Highway Authority of India (NHAI) has reportedly planned to implement ‘pay-per-road-use’ system. This means that travellers will only have to pay for the distance travelled on the expressway.

The 'pay-per-road-use' is an open road tolling wherein the authorities will install automatic number plate reading cameras (ANPR) at the entries and exits of the expressway, and these cameras will detect the distance travelled by a vehicle on the highway. The toll amount will be digitally deducted from the account of the registered vehicle.
