NHAI drops plan for barrier-free tolling on Bengaluru-Mysuru highway

The National Highways Authority of India has canceled plans for a barrier-free tolling system on the Bengaluru-Mysuru highway. Instead, the authority will implement a closed, distance-based tolling mechanism to manage traffic more effectively.

The National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) has shelved its proposal to convert the 117-km Bengaluru-Mysuru Access-Controlled Highway into a barrier-free, high-speed tolling corridor under the Multi-Lane Free Flow (MLFF) toll collection system, opting instead to implement a closed, distance-based tolling mechanism across the stretch.
