Barrier-Free Tolling System to Launch on Gurugram-Jaipur NH-48 from August 1
The Gurugram-Jaipur section of National Highway 48 (NH-48) is set to become barrier-free with the Multi Lane Free Flow (MLFF) tolling system operational from August 1. This system allows vehicles to pass toll plazas without stopping, using RFID and Automatic Number Plate Recognition to deduct tolls automatically. Already active at several toll plazas including Daulatpura and Manoharpura, the Shahjahanpur plaza recently adopted MLFF, improving traffic flow, reducing congestion, and lowering emissions. The system is expected to expand further along NH-48 and other highways.
