While the multi-lane fast flow toll collection system will not completely eliminate traffic congestion on highways, it will significantly reduce vehicle congestion at toll booths and contribute to smoother traffic flow on the whole, says a transport consultant.
“By removing physical toll booths, vehicles maintain a more consistent speed, which can drastically reduce localised bottlenecks and improve overall traffic flow. MLFF should be seen as a vital component within a holistic traffic management strategy rather than the sole solution to highway congestion,” he said, adding that many major cities have successfully adopted such an integrated approach.
“This balanced approach – acknowledging both the strengths of MLFF and the need for comprehensive congestion management – aligns with the best global practices and ensures that we harness technology to improve our transport infrastructure effectively,” he said.
