FASTag on Yamuna Expressway likely to start from today

Thousands of commuters are likely to have the facility of paying the toll on the 165km Yamuna Expressway via FASTag from Thursday as the toll operator, Jaypee Infratech Limited (JIL), has completed all formalities to make the facility operational. The implementation will take place after multiple delays in the past few months. Earlier it was supposed to start on April 1.

The electronic toll collection system has already been implemented on all national highways, which are maintained by the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI). But, unlike the national highways in the country, the Yamuna Expressway is managed by a private operator, JIL,
