CHENNAI: Travelling to other districts in Tamil Nadu or inter-state from Chennai by car will cost `30 to `120 more from Friday as National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) will be revising user fee cost at several toll plazas in the state.
Of the 55 toll plazas in the state, the fees will increase at 28 including those at Vikravandi, Omalur, Dharmapuri, Samayapuram, and Eliyarpathi on the Madurai-Tuticorin highway.
Though Nitin Gadkari, Union Road Transport Minister, announced that user fees at publicly funded toll plazas will be reduced to 40% once the project cost is recovered, nothing has materialised.
