Motorists using the Yamuna expressway will now have to shell out more money towards toll tax. In the second rate revision in three months, the toll for cars for a one-way trip to Agra from Greater Noida has gone up by Rs 30 from April 1. However, the concessionaire said this was technically not a toll hike, but the withdrawal of a discount offered to vehicles since 2012, when it was opened for traffic.

The new toll rate for cars is Rs 360 (up by Rs 30) while it is Rs 175 (up by Rs 10) for twowheelers for a one-way trip to Agra from Greater Noida. For buses and trucks, there is no change in the rate, which continues to stand at Rs 1150.

Tax for mini-buses and other light commercial vehicles (LCVs) has also been hiked by Rs 15 to Rs 565. The rate for multi-axle vehicles is unchanged at Rs 1,765. But, for oversized or multi-axle vehicles, it is Rs 2,250.

Officials of Jaypee Infratech said the toll fee rise re flects a hike ranging from 3% to 20%, and the revision has been approved by the Yamuna Expressway Industrial Development Authority and notified by state government.

Expressway users will now be charged R 2.20 per km for light vehicles like cars and jeeps, Rs 3.45 for medium heavy vehicles and light commercial vehicles like minibuses, and Rs 7 for buses and trucks. While heavy construction machinery or earth moving equipment will be charged Rs 10.75, multi-axle heavy vehicles will be charged Rs 13.70 instead of Rs 13.75 per km.

The expressway has three toll plazas located at Jewar (38 km), Mathura (94km) and Agra (150km). “Commuters travelling to Jewar are charged toll for 0 to 48km. The rate for this section of expressway has not been raised for twowheelers. For four-wheelers like cars and LCVs, its now Rs 105 and Rs 165 respectively,“ said a Jaypee spokesperson.

He added, “The rates for two-wheelers for the Mathura section (48 to 109km) has also not been enhanced but the fee for four-wheelers is now up by 3.8% to Rs 135.“ Rates for vehicles travelling along the Agra section will have to pay a toll of Rs 60 instead of Rs 50.
