Toll collection begins on STRR’s first stretch; local cars can ply for Rs 330 a month
Toll collection started on Friday for the first stretch of the Bengaluru Satellite Town Ring Road (STRR), which has Karnataka’s maiden boothless toll plaza at Nalluru near Devanahalli.
The 288-km STRR is being constructed to link Bengaluru with neighbouring towns such as Dobbspet, Devanahalli, Hoskote and Ramanagara. It will link five national highways and dozens of state highways.
Once fully ready, it will eliminate the need for long-distance commercial vehicles to enter Bengaluru. Traffic moving between satellite towns will also be able to bypass the city.
