WorthIT | ‘We Are Ending Toll’ : New System To Replace FASTag And Toll Plaza Says Nitin Gadkari

The Indian government is planning to replace the current FASTag-based toll collection system with an advanced GPS-based system. Under this new system, toll charges will be deducted directly from bank accounts based on the distance traveled. This move aims to save time and money for travelers. Union Minister Nitin Gadkari highlighted the improvements in travel times, such as the Mumbai to Pune journey now taking only 2 hours instead of 9, saving seven hours of diesel. Public-private investments will fund these upgrades.
