Open toll payments on 11 highways officially start today

These include LDP, DUKE, MEX, NPE

KUALA LUMPUR – The implementation of an open toll payment system, which allows highway users to pay tolls using debit and credit cards, officially began today on 11 highways.

The highways are the Ampang-Kuala Lumpur Elevated Expressway (Akleh), the Guthrie Corridor Expressway (GCE), the Sungai Besi Expressway (Besraya), the New Pantai Expressway (NPE) and the Butterworth-Kulim Expressway (BKE).

Others include the Damansara-Puchong Expressway (LDP), Skim Penyuraian Trafik Kuala Lumpur Barat (SPRINT), Shah Alam Expressway (Kesas), the SMART Tunnel, Kuala Lumpur-Putrajaya Expressway (MEX) and Duta-Ulu Klang Expressway (DUKE).

Works Minister Datuk Seri Alexander Nanta Linggi said the implementation of the Open Payment Toll Collection System (SPT) would provide new alternatives to existing toll payment methods such as Touch ‘n Go, Smart Tag and RFID.

“Our objective is to provide payment options for users since previously there were only one or two systems; sometimes their (Touch’N Go) card balance is not sufficient (for toll payment). 

“Road users now have another option, namely the SPT, this is also the first step towards implementing the multi-lane free flow system in the future,” he said after officiating the implementation of the open payment system at the Loke Yew Toll Plaza on Besraya today.

He said that so far, 12 highways have agreed to implement the system, however, the implementation of the system on the Penang Bridge is expected to begin at the end of this year to allow the concessionaire to conduct further study on it.

In the meantime, Nanta said discussions are ongoing to expand the implementation of the system on other highways in the country.

The implementation of the open toll payment system is part of the MYjalan campaign initiative undertaken by the Works Ministry, the Highway Authority and highway concession companies. – September 29, 2023
