New Delhi, Aug 1: National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) has installed the Multi-Lane Free Flow (MLFF) tolling system at Shahjahanpur Toll Plaza on Delhi–Jaipur section of NH-48 in Rajasthan.
Earlier, NHAI installed such a Multi-Lane Free Flow Tolling System at Daulatpura and Manoharpura Toll Plaza on the same corridor.
The MLFF framework introduces barrier-less tolling with minimal human intervention, enabling vehicles to pass through toll locations without stopping and ensuring seamless traffic flow.
The system integrates Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) technology with FASTag-based Electronic Toll Collection to facilitate automated user fee collection.
National Highway users are required to maintain sufficient balance in their FASTag accounts.
In case of scenarios such as insufficient FASTag balance, invalid or nonfunctional FASTag, users are issued an Electronic Notice (E-Notice) for non-payment of user fee.
Such users are required to pay normal user fees within 72 hours of the E-Notice.
In case of non-compliance after 72 hours, the user fee will be charged at twice the normal rate of the vehicle category. (BVI)
