The National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) launched the first Multi-Lane Free Flow (MLFF) tolling system at Choryasi Fee Plaza in Gujarat on NH-48.
The Indian Highways Management Company Limited (IHMCL), under NHAI, signed an agreement with ICICI Bank to implement the MLFF system.
Another MLFF system will be implemented soon at Gharaunda Fee Plaza in Haryana on National Highway 44 (NH-44).
The government plans to roll out around 25 MLFF-based toll plazas across India during the current financial year.
MLFF enables barrier-free toll collection using FASTag and vehicle registration number (VRN) recognition via RFID readers and automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) cameras.
MLFF implementation aims to improve toll revenue collection and create a smarter and more efficient national highway network.
