Cashless Tolling Begins On Keffi-Akwanga-Lafai-Markurdi Road This Thursday
The cashless tolling system is to commence on the Keffi-Akwanga-Lafia-Markurdi Expressway on Thursday January 16, 2025. The system, which follows Infrastructure Concession Regulatory Commission (ICRC) guidelines for Public-Private Partnerships in the country, signifies the beginning of the operations and maintenance of the road for sustainable networks. This was contained in a statement in Abuja on Sunday by the construction firm – China Harbour Engineering Company Nigeria Limited.
The statement reads: “The cashless tolling system is a strategic programme under the Highway Development and Management Initiative (HDMI), aimed at promoting a strong and sustainable transportation ecosystem. “Tolls collected will go towards funding road maintenance, rescue services, improved security services, rest areas, and more. With cashless Tolling, payments are guaranteed to be accounted for.”
The statement advised motorists to get their “E-tags at the Toll plazas or Touch n Go cards at the Toll plazas, Trailer Parks, Garages and POS operators all along the expressway. They can also just pull up with POS cards and experience a new dimension in tolling.”
