A DOZEN more radio frequency identification (RFID) lanes on the North-South (PLUS) Expressway were opened ahead of schedule on  March 11.

 Works Minister Alexander Nanta Linggi said the lanes were originally scheduled to be completed in mid-April.

The additional RFID lanes are at toll plazas in Setia Alam, Subang, Jalan Duta, Putra Mahkota, Kajang, Kubang Semang, Sungai Besi, Shah Alam, Sungai Buloh, Rawang Selatan and Penang Bridge.

“I was also given an assurance that this RFID system will always be in the best condition. However, I also expect cooperation from RFID users on the PLUS expressway to always use the same RFID lane or payment mode when entering and exiting the toll plaza.

“At the same time, motorists should ensure that the eWallet balance is sufficient before starting the journey for a smoother travel experience,” he said on Facebook today.

In January, Nanta announced that 12 more RFID lanes would be constructed on PLUS Expressway following complaints of congestion by motorists. – Bernama, March 25, 2023.
