Before going on a road trip, people definitely think about which route they should take, where they will spend less petrol and diesel and they will not have to pay toll. With this, they can reach their destination in less money. To solve the problem of the people, the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) is bringing a new feature.

For your information, let us tell you that a new feature is being added to NHAI ‘s official mobile app Rajmarg Yatra. According to the report, a senior official of the Highway Authority said that the new feature on the app will allow users to compare the toll fees charged on the highway between two destinations. With this, they will be able to reach their destination in less toll fees. Read further for details.

NHAI’s new initiative will be useful

For your information, let us tell you that the Highway Travel App was launched in the year 2023. It gives information related to the highway in real time such as road conditions, available facilities and emergency services. Now a new toll indicator feature is being added to this app. Through this, passengers will be able to see the toll price on multiple routes and select the lowest cost route. For example, if you are traveling from Kanpur to Delhi and there are three routes for this, then the app will allow passengers to compare which route will cost less toll. The aim of this feature is to make road travel budget-friendly and increase transparency about toll.

The officer gave information

According to the report of cnbctv18, a senior NHAI official has given information about this feature. He said that the Rajmarg Yatra app will compare three routes. For example, to go from Delhi to Lucknow, there is Yamuna Expressway, Ghaziabad-Aligarh-Kanpur or Moradabad-Bareilly-Sitapur route. You will be able to see that out of these, the app will tell you on which route you will have to pay the lowest toll tax.
