Union Minister for Road, Transport and Highways Nitin Gadkari on Monday inaugurated a Multi-Lane Free Flow (MLFF) barrier-less tolling system at the Mundka-Bakkarwala Toll Plaza on Urban Extension Road-II in Delhi. The toll plaza is the second of its kind in India, after the Choryasi Toll Plaza in Gujarat, and uses advanced technologies such as Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) and FASTag for seamless toll collection.
The National Highway Authority of India (NHAI) plans to roll out MLFF tolling at 17 national highway fee plazas across nine states, including Gujarat, Delhi, Haryana, and Rajasthan, by September 2026.
The initiative aims to reduce queues and delays, save fuel costs and travel time, and provide a better driving experience.
The NHAI will also implement phase 2 of the project, covering an additional 108+ plazas, by March 2027. The court or relevant authorities are not involved in this case, but the NHAI will continue to monitor and implement the project as planned, with the next steps including the rollout of the remaining toll plazas.
