SINGAPORE – Electronic Road Pricing (ERP) rates at seven locations will be reduced by $1 from next Monday for the June school holidays.

In a statement on Monday, the Land Transport Authority (LTA) said rates will be lowered at these locations:

Ayer Rajah Expressway (AYE) after Jurong Town Hall towards the city
AYE after North Buona Vista towards Tuas
Southbound Central Expressway (CTE) before Braddell Road
Southbound CTE after Braddell Road and the Pan-Island Expressway (PIE) slip road to southbound CTE
Southbound CTE auxiliary lane to PIE (Changi)/Serangoon Road
PIE (Adam and Mount Pleasant)
Kallang-Paya Lebar Expressway (KPE) (East Coast Parkway) after Defu Flyover.

As part of the changes, motorists will not pay ERP charges when they pass through the AYE after Jurong Town Hall towards the city from 6pm to 6.30pm, and the set of two gantries on the PIE (Adam and Mount Pleasant) from 8.30am to 9am.

Motorists will still be charged $1 if they travel through the PIE (Adam and Mount Pleasant) gantries from 8am to 8.30am.

For the gantry on the AYE after North Buona Vista towards Tuas, motorists will pay $1 from 6pm to 6.30pm, down from the current $2.

For the gantry on the southbound CTE before Braddell Road, they will be charged $1 from 7am to 7.30am and $2 from 9am to 9.30am.

ERP 3.0 may be a possibility “in time to come”, if the authorities find new technology that can work effectively after undergoing rigorous tests.
