Ten Tolls In Klang Valley To Go Fully Electronic

PETALING JAYA: Road users, prepare your Touch 'n Go cards and Smart Tags as ten tolled highways in the Klang Valley will go cashless from noon onwards today.

These tolls are located on four highways - the Maju Expressway (MEX), New Pantai Expressway (NPE), Cheras-Kajang Highway (Grand Saga) and Kemuning Shah Alam Expressway (LKSA).

The toll plazas are Salak Selatan (MEX), Putrajaya (MEX), Seri Kembangan (MEX), PJS2 (NPE), PJS5 (NPE), Pantai Dalam (NPE), Batu 9 (Grand Saga), Batu 11 (Grand Saga), Seri Muda (LKSA) and Alam Impian (LKSA).

This is part of the move to switch from cash payment at toll plazas to a fully electronic payment system in the Klang Valley.

Highway Concessionaires Malaysia Association president Datuk Zainudin A. Kadir was reported as saying that the fully electronic payment system will help to ease traffic congestion at the toll plazas.

In September last year, the Ampang-Kuala Lumpur Elevated Highway (Akleh), Duta-Ulu Kelang Expressway (Duke) and Smart Tunnel Highway were among the first few highway concessionaires to implement the system.

The first batch of toll plazas to go fully electronic were the Datuk Keramat toll plaza (Akleh), Ayer Panas‎, Batu and Sentul Pasar (Duke) and Smart Highway toll plaza at Sungai Besi.

More highways here are expected to go cashless in June.
