The government is working to roll out a GPS based toll collection system and introducing E-Highway from Delhi to Mumbai in the upcoming months.
This was stated by the Road Transport and Highways Minister Nitin Gadakari in the Lok Sabha today. While replying to supplementaries, Mr. Gadkari said that toll collection through the fast tag has reached to 93 per cent across the country which has resulted in 10 thousand crore more toll collection in comparison to previous year.
He said use of fast tag has also reduced the waiting time on the toll booths. He added that introduction of GPS based toll collection system will facilitate smooth movement of traffic, bring transparency and remove the old mechanism of toll collection system.
