Dwarka Expressway: The National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) would be revising Bijwasan Plaza toll rates with effect from April 1, 2026. This would make cab drives on the Dwarka Expressway costlier for the common man.
DON'T MISS
An official for the NHAI remarked that an increase of 2-5 percent has been made by the NHAI across different vehicle categories. The official added that the revision is a part of the annual toll rationalization exercises by the authority in accordance with the wholesale price index of the Union Government.
Dwarka Expressway-Revised Toll Rates
The existing rates for private car’s single and double journeys have been revised from Rs. 220 and Rs. 330 to Rs. 225 and Rs. 340. On the other hand, car monthly pass (50 trip) and local monthly pass rates have been revised from Rs. 7360 and Rs. 340 to Rs. 7550 and Rs. 350 while the rates of LCV/cab single and return journeys have been revised from Rs. 355 and Rs. 535 to Rs. 365 and Rs. 550.
The toll rates for LCV monthly pass (5 trips), bus/truck (2-axle, single), bus/truck (2-axle, return) and 3-axle vehicle (single) and oversized vehicle (single) have been revised to Rs. 12195, Rs. 765, Rs. 1150, Rs. 835 and Rs. 1465, respectively.
Costly Cab Rides
The toll price revisions came just a few months after the entire process of toll collection started in November last year at the plaza. Several daily commuters have remarked that the toll price revisions would significantly push up travel costs for them. Cab drives across the expressway would now be the most costly and the financial burden would be shifted to the consumers.
Local residents have complained about the lack of public transport facilities in the area. Many have complained that they have paid exorbitant prices for homes near the expressway and yet the concept of public transport is completely missing.
