NEW DELHI: Shortly, yellowish lines in toll plazas will make sure that the waiting queue of automobiles is more than 100 yards at any given time period and whether the queue is outside the specified distance, subsequently vehicles in the front may move without paying the price.

These guidelines are issued from the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) since it attempts to minimise waiting time in toll plazas and guarantee service period of more than 10 minutes per car during peak hours.

Noting that though in the majority of the toll plazas, there’s not any waiting period following the compulsory 100 percent FASTag, the NHAI stated,”even if there’s a queue of cars of over a hundred metres because of a reason, the cars will be permitted to pass without paying charge until the queue comes in 100 meters in the toll booth”.

For this function, a yellowish line in a distance of 100 meters in the toll booth is going to be pronounced in every toll lane, so the NHAI stated, adding this can be to inculcate a further awareness of responsibility in cost plaza operators.

The NHAI reported that these guidelines are directed at guaranteeing”minimal waiting period in the toll plazas”.

As stated by the NHAI, as it’s transitioned into 100 percent cashless tolling from middle of February 2021, the total FASTag penetration in NHAI toll plazas has reached 96 percent and several have 99 percent penetration.

“Keeping in view the developing Electronic Toll Collection (ETC) penetration into the nation, it’s been shown to have a brand new design and assemble the forthcoming toll plazas according to traffic projections for the subsequent 10 years to possess a efficient toll collection strategy,” it stated.

The NHAI stated as social distancing is now the new standard, commuters are looking at FASTag for a toll payment choice because it nullifies the odds of any human connection between the motorists and also the toll operators.

The continuous rise and adoption of FASTag from the street users is inviting and has assisted in bringing greater efficiency in cost surgeries, it included.
