Expressway toll fee to rise from Bt40 to 45

The government approved a 12.5 per cent rise in expressway fees, less than reportedly sought by Bangkok Expressway Pcl, the nation's largest private toll- road operator.



Tolls will increase to Bt45 from 40 baht for passenger cars, said Surachai Thansitpong, deputy permanent secretary of the Transport Ministry.

Bangkok Expressway had sought a Bt55 fee.

The new fee is scheduled to take effect on Sept 1, and the cabinet will have to decide if a government tax of Bt3 per toll will also be imposed, Surachai said.
