Summary:

Union Minister for Road Transport and Highways Nitin Gadkari said the proposed Multi Lane Free Flow (MLFF) toll system will cut toll collection operating costs from 12–15% to about 3–4%, improving highway efficiency in India. The system will use ANPR cameras, FASTag integration and GPS-based tracking to enable barrier-free tolling without stopping at plazas. It is expected to reduce congestion fuel consumption and travel time on national highways. The government is running pilot projects and technology integration steps for phased rollout across major corridors. Gadkari said digital tolling will improve transparency user convenience and operational efficiency. Aligned with Bharatmala Pariyojana and PM Gati Shakti, MLFF supports modern transport infrastructure and smart mobility, potentially lowering logistics costs.
