DUKE has become the 12th Malaysian highway signing on to implement the open payment system for tolls, as well as the second to trial the much-vaunted barrier-less Multi-Lane Fast Flow (MLFF) system.
. Nanta said the initiative, which will involve the installation of credit and debit card terminals at one lane of each toll plaza, will be implemented in stages as it requires careful planning and appropriate use of technologies. The system is said to be a stepping stone towards the implementation of the much-vaunted barrier-less Multi-Lane Fast Flow system.
Speaking of which, the ministry also announced that DUKE will be the second highway in Malaysia to implement a proof of concept for the MLFF system, after Besraya. This system, which essentially apes Singapore’s successful Electronic Road Payment scheme, will allow road users to freely drive through gantries that will collect toll fees electronically, without having to stop or slow down.
The ministry reiterated its timeline of MLFF’s full introduction, which will happen in the third quarter of 2024 at the latest. The long lead time between the pilot programme and the full-scale implementation is said to give the government, concessionaires and other parties enough time to identify and weed out any issues.
