Expressway fees cancelled

Motorists can use the entire expressway system for no charge from Wednesday until November 20 to help free up travel around Bangkok.

 

The Cabinet Tuesday waived all expressway fees, including Chalerm Mahanakorn Expressway               ( First Stage system), Si Rat Expressway (Second Stage system), and Udon Ratthaya Expressway (Bang PaIn – Pak Kret).
The government will pay compensation to the Bangkok Expressway Company (BECL) for cancelling fees of Bt184 million on these three expressways.
Earlier, fees were waived for motorists using Chalongrat Expressway (Ram IndraArt Narong), Burapavithi Expressway (Bang NaChon Buri), and Kanchanapisek Expressway.
