The Indian government has announced plans to implement a GPS-based toll system within the next six months, which will replace traditional toll plazas, said Union minister Nitin Gadkari.
Addressing a CII event, Gadkari further said state-owned NHAI’s toll revenue is currently Rs 40,000 crore and it is going to soar to Rs 1.40 lakh crore in 2-3 years.
“The government is looking at new technologies including GPS-based toll systems to replace toll plazas in the country, We will bring new technology in six months,” he said.
This new system will rely on GPS technology to track and charge vehicles as they use highways and other roads, eliminating the need for physical toll booths and reducing traffic congestion.
The move is expected to streamline transportation and improve efficiency, making travel smoother and more convenient for commuters and businesses alike.
