E-tolling mandatory across national highways from December this year

NEW DELHI: Toll collection across all national highways in the country will be done electronically starting December 1, as per the latest directions from the ministry of road transport and highways.

In a letter sent to the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI), the highways ministry has asked for conversion of all toll lanes at all national highways to ‘FASTag lanes’, a move that will make travel through toll plazas seamless and also remove congestion.
