Travelling on the Delhi-Mumbai Expressway, Sohna-Gurugram road and the KMP Expressway is set to get costlier with toll rates to be hiked up to 7 per cent from April 1.
The hike was approved by the National Highways Authority of India and Haryana State Industrial & Infrastructure Development Corporation at a recent meeting. With 12 toll plazas, 83 kms of the KMP Expressway are currently taxable. Here, toll is collected according to the distance and will affect 60,000 commuters on an average. For cars, jeeps, vans and LMVs, Rs 1.61 per km had to be paid earlier. Now, it has been increased to Rs 1.73. Minibus, LGVs and LCVs will now have to pay Rs 2.8 instead of Rs 2.6 for every km.
