TRB Resumes Cashless Toll Collection What You Need to Know

Title TRB Resumes Cashless Toll Collection What You Need to Know

As of March 15, the Toll Regulatory Board (TRB) will resume cashless toll collection in major expressways across Luzon. To ensure a seamless transition, here's what you need to know

What's Required Valid ETC Device or RFID Sticker

To use the expressway, motorists must have a valid Electronic Toll Collection (ETC) device or Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) sticker installed on their vehicles. Without these devices, users will be issued a Temporary Operator's Permit or a Show Cause Order for violating the No Valid ETC Device, No Entry policy by Land Transportation Office (LTO) deputized personnel and face penalties.

Benefits Efficient Traffic Flow

The dedicated toll lanes used by cash-paying motorists often become congested with long lines of motor vehicles, impeding the fast and efficient flow of traffic. By reserving these lanes exclusively for ETC users, it is expected that a better and more efficient flow of traffic will result.

What to Do Get Your Vehicle Installed

Motorists are advised to have their vehicles installed with RFIDs at installation and loading stations inside and outside the expressways. San Miguel Corp., one of the major operators of these expressways, fully supports the government's initiative to reimplement cashless toll collection.

The Impact Improved Safety, Convenience, and Operations

This policy plays a crucial role in easing traffic congestion at toll plazas, improving safety and convenience for motorists, and optimizing expressway operations. With 97% of expressway users already having ETCs or RFIDs installed, the transition to cashless toll collection is expected to be smooth.

What It Means A Smoother Daily Commute

In conclusion, the resumption of cashless toll collection on March 15 means that motorists must have a valid ETC device or RFID sticker installed on their vehicles. By doing so, you can enjoy a smoother and more efficient commute while contributing to improved safety and convenience for all users.
