ISLAMABAD: The National Highway Authority (NHA) has announced an increase in toll rates for the Lahore-Islamabad Motorway (M-2), effective from August 26, 2024.
According to a notice issued by the NHA, the toll rates will be escalated by 10% as per the Concession Agreement signed with M/s Motorway Operations and Rehabilitation Engineering (Private) Limited in 2014 for the overlay and modernization of the motorway on a Build-Operate-Transfer (BOT) basis.
The new toll rates will be applicable until August 25, 2025. The revised toll rates for different vehicle categories are: Car (per kilometre toll Rs3.38, total toll Rs1,210), wagon (Rs5.67, Rs2,030), coaster (Rs7.94, Rs2,840), bus (Rs11.32, Rs4,060), Truck (Rs14.73 Rs5,280), Trailer (Rs18.94, Rs6,780).
Motorists using the Lahore-Islamabad Motorway will now have to pay higher tolls.

The NHA has advised commuters to plan their journeys accordingly and carry sufficient funds.
