BENGALURU, India , July 22, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Demonstrating strong real-world impact, the Multi-Lane Free Flow (MLFF) tolling system on the Mundka-Bakkarwala stretch of Delhi's Urban Extension Road-II (UER-II) has processed more than 3.04 million vehicle transactions since its launch. Enabled by Bosch Mobility Platform and Solutions (MPS) in partnership with IDFC FIRST Bank, this barrier-less model allows vehicles to pass through tolling points without stopping, averaging over 50,000 vehicles per day.

This uninterrupted flow of traffic has contributed to environmental and economic benefits, saving an estimated 152,129 litres of fuel and preventing approximately 395.5 tonnes of CO2 emissions.
