When the process of toll collection through Fastag was started in the country 3 years ago, it was called a game changer. However, now the time has come to change this method because toll collection in the country will be done directly through GPS.

Government plans to start GPS toll collection from March 2024

Union Road Transport Minister Nitin Gadkari had said about 3 weeks ago that toll collection through GPS in the country can start from March 2024. In this series, testing of GPS based toll collection is going to start on about 10 highways of the country from next month i.e. February 2024. According to the news of Livemint, this information has been received. This clearly means that soon taking toll collection through Fastag will become a thing of the past and GPS based toll collection will become a part of people’s lives.

Pilot project will be started first

It has also been told in the news of Livemint that before starting this new GPS toll collection process across the country, its pilot project will be run on some limited highways. Through this, it will be seen how work can be done to implement it smoothly and without any problem across the country by March. This information has been given by Anurag Jain, Secretary, Ministry of Road and Transport.

How will the new GPS based toll system work?

Through the new system, toll collection will be collected through the route itself and this will eliminate the need for fixed toll plazas. For this, geofencing of the highway will be done which will be accomplished through Global Positioning System (GPS) or Radio Frequency Identification (RFID).

The government can bring such a facility, which will eliminate the need for toll plazas. To get rid of such problems, the central government is planning to introduce a new toll collection system. The government is soon planning to implement a new GPS-based toll system called ANPR (Automatic Number Plate Reader) cameras for toll collection.

How will this GPS based system work?

This ANPR (Automatic Number Plate Reader) system will read the license plate of the vehicle, after which the toll tax will be deducted from the vehicle owner’s bank account. This system will depend on the cameras installed at the entry and exit points. These cameras will click the photo of the license plate and deduct toll tax through toll from the vehicle number. This new ANPR system can prove to be a better option in place of Fastag.

According to a report by the Transport Corporation of India and IIM Calcutta, oil worth about Rs 1 lakh crore is wasted due to vehicles standing at the toll plazas and about 45 thousand rupees every year due to the jam at the toll plaza. There is a loss of crores of rupees, that is, due to toll nakas overall, the country suffers a loss of 1 lakh 45 thousand crores. In such a situation, GPS system is going to start soon to save your pocket and the economic loss of the country.

Vehicle number plate may also change

The government may soon make a big change in the vehicle number plate as well. Now the new number plate will have a GPS along with the vehicle number. Recently, the Union Transport Ministry has ordered installation of GPS number plates in new vehicles. Along with this, now new number plates will have to be installed in old vehicles as well.

New GPS will also be installed in these new number plates. Along with this, a software will be installed at the toll plaza, due to which the toll tax money will be deducted from your account as soon as the vehicle leaves. Now the number plate installed in your vehicles will not be normal but it will have a GPS system. The Union Transport Ministry has ordered the installation of GPS number plates in new vehicles.

On the other hand, in old vehicles, the old number plate will have to be removed and a new number plate will be installed. In this, the GPS system will be attached to the number plate. Along with this, a software will be installed, due to which the toll will be cut automatically as soon as you reach the toll plaza.

Experts in the matter have said that some changes will also have to be made in the Motor Vehicle Act for the GPS-based toll system. This plan is being prepared in collaboration with the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways. Sources say that the technology of GPS based toll is in India and it can also be started in a very short time but preference will be given to greenfield expressways and highways only.

How will the toll be deducted from GPS?

Under this technology, you have to fix a GPS device in your car. As soon as you bring the vehicle on the tolled highway, the calculation of toll will start and the money will be deducted according to the distance you have traveled on that road. This amount will be deducted directly from your bank account, so you will also have to give information about your bank account to the government. Also you have to register your vehicle under this system. With the help of GPS based toll system, the discount on toll to the local people may be stopped.

What will be the benefit?

If the GPS based toll system is implemented, then people will not have to pay fixed charges, but they will have to pay the same amount as far as they have traveled. This will also get rid of the problem of jams near toll plazas. Along with this, the cases of violence coming to the toll plaza every day will also end.

What is the status of FASTag now, FASTag was installed in 16 percent cars in 2017-18, which increased to 96.3 percent in 2021-22. In 2017-18, a total toll of Rs 3,532 crore was collected from FASTag. This increased to Rs 33,274 crore in 2021-22
