Greater Noida: Newest by June 15, the FASTag toll program will be usable in Yamuna Expressway.
Both lanes on each aspect is going to be earmarked for FASTag vehicles in the three toll plazas throughout the 165km-long high-speed corridor involving Greater Noida and Agra, officials explained.
The rest of the lanes will still continue to take tolls in money or digitally.
A FASTag is a radio frequency identification (RFID) decal attached to your car.
An RFID reader close to the toll booth assesses the balance and enables vehicles to maneuver, cutting the time required to accumulate taxation manually and facilitating traffic motion.
According to pre-Covid quotes, more than 40,000 vehicles utilize the six-lane road every day, often resulting in long queues in the toll plazas as a result of lack of their digital system.
According to officers, the expressway concessionaire has signed a deal with Yamuna Expressway Industrial Development Authority (YEIDA) to apply the FASTag system in the three toll plazas.
As a second step, Jaypee Infratech will signal a deal with Indian Management Company Limited, the firm supported from the National Highways Authority of India, to be able to put in the digital cost system.
YEIDA’s CEO Arun Vir Singh stated,”It shouldn’t take over a fortnight to have the machine operational.
All the formalities are performed from our conclusion.
The concessionaire is searching for a system integrator who will prepare the hybrid vehicle collection system also from June 15, automobile owners with FASTag shall have the ability to move throughout the lanes in a smooth way.
” Jaypee Infratech sources stated that because their plaza doesn’t fall under the purview of NHAI and has been independently improved, ensuring collection of their earnings was also an issue.
“The money collected will probably arrive at the accounts of the business and also a memorandum of agreement needs to be signed to get this using the firm integrated by NHAI for establishing the digital device,” stated a senior officer.
