Starting April 1, 2022, road travellers between Dehradun, Haridwar and Delhi will have to pay extra as the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) has announced a hike in toll tax. The tax has been increased by around 10%.
A look at the increased rate:
The Lachhiwala toll plaza in Dehradun (one-way toll tax) has been increased from INR 85 to INR 95 for light motor vehicles including cars and jeeps. And, for two-way travel, people will now have to pay INR 145 (earlier, it was INR 125). This is one of the most commonly used routes by people to travel to Kumaon or Pauri Garhwal district from Dehradun.
The Nangia toll plaza is used to travel between Garhwal and Kumaon. The tax has been increased from INR 75 to INR 80 for one-way travel and INR 115 to INR 120 for two-way travel (light vehicles ). People who used to live in a 20 km radius of the Nangia toll used to pay subsidised toll fees but now it has also been increased by INR 10.
People travelling from Dehradun in their car and jeep will have to pay INR 50 (one-way), and those coming from Delhi to Dehradun and using the Delhi-Meerut Expressway will have to pay INR 155 (one-time travel).
Toll fees will also increase on the other plazas that fall between Delhi-Dehradun.
