Toll waiver for cars at 53 plazas in Maharashtra

Toll waiver for cars at 53 plazas in Maharashtra

Come June 1 and there will be no toll for private four-wheelers (light vehicles) and state transport buses at 53 toll plazas while 12 toll plazas will be fully shut down.Of the 53, six toll nakas are in the neighbouring areas of Mumbai.

The new relief for private light vehicles includes plazas at Kasheli on the BhiwandiWadpe road, Kamothe on the Sion-Panvel highway , Gaimukh on the Thane-Ghodbunder road and two posts at Katai and Gove villages on the Bhiwandi-Kalyan-Shil road. The Wadkhal toll post on the Alibaug-Pen-Khopoli road is being totally withdrawn.

The decision on five Mumbai entry points, however, will be decided later. A committee headed by additional chief secretary, PWD, has been set up to check if toll booths on the fringes of Mumbai like Vashi, Airoli, Mulund, Bhandup, Dahisar, the sea link and Mumbai-Pune Expressway can offer any waiver to private cars and state buses. The report is expected to be out by July-end. PWD minister Chandrakant Patil told TOI that the 53 toll plazas will not charge any toll from light vehicles like car or jeep. " Although we are waiving light vehicles from toll, the state government will not put any additional burden on heavy vehicles," said Patil.
