SINGAPORE - Motorists travelling under some Electronic Road Pricing (ERP) gantries will not have to pay charges at specific times until Jan 3 next year.

The Land Transport Authority (LTA) announced on Tuesday (Nov 16) that the changes in ERP rates will take place from next Monday (Nov 22) as a result of its review of rates for the December school holidays.

The changes will be in place until Jan 3, after which they revert to the pre-school holiday rates.

- Four gantries on the southbound CTE after Braddell Road and the Pan-Island Expressway (PIE) slip road into the southbound CTE will have rates cut by $1 during specific times. Between 8am and 9.30am, the charge is $1. There are no charges between 7.30am and 8am, and 9.30am and 10am;
