I think that KL / Klang Valley should easily win this title if there is such a contest. Let me start with the list: North-South Expressway, LDP, NKVE, KL-Seremban Highway, KL-Putrajaya Highway, Federal Highway (partially tolled), etc. Anyone care to add? For Klang Valley residents, do you feel that these highways provide more convenience than burden, or vice versa (considering the toll rates increase by at least 10% every 5 years)?

SMART Highway, Sungai Besi Highway, Kesas Highway, Sprint Highway, Karak Highway, Elite Highway. Anyone can add somemore? :)

Toll Collection At KL-Putrajaya Highway To Take Effect Tonight:banana: :D


KUALA LUMPUR, Jan 16 (Bernama) -- Toll collection at the Kuala Lumpur - Putrajaya (KLP) Highway will take effect from 12 midnight tonight, says Works Minister Datuk Seri S. Samy Vellu.

He said the cabinet at its weekly meeting today agreed that the charges at the Putrajaya Toll Plaza would be RM2.50 for Class 1 vehicles (cars), RM5 for Class 2 (small lorries), RM7.50 for Class 3 (big lorries), RM1.30 for Class 4 (taxis) and RM2.50 for Class 5 (buses).

Toll charges at the Salak Selatan Toll plaza would be RM1.50 for Class 1, RM3 for Class 2, RM4.50 for Class 3, RM0.80 for Class 4 and RM1.50 for Class 5, he said in a statement.

The construction of the RM1.4 billion KLP Highway, stretching 26km from Kampung Pandan roundabout to Putrajaya, began in December 2004 and completed in December last year, giving motorists an alternative route to the national administrative capital from Kuala Lumpur and vice-versa.

It also helps alleviate traffic congestion, particularly along the North-South Highway from Seremban to Jalan Sungai Besi near the Royal Malaysia Air Force Airport.

Yeah totally agree.
But I guess that's the price to pay in the name of development. But no doubt they bring plentiful of convenience to us residence. You can always use JKR roads if you don't want to pay rite...

Klang Valley - Toll Capitol in the World
...ermm so sorry to bring this up. I think it should read Klang Valley - Toll Capital of the World instead. Not to say that my English is so perfect, but being some kinda perfectionist myself, I could help but to correct it...:)
Peace! :nocrook:

I know. I only realize it after I posted it. Don't know how to edit the title.

haha memang patut pun.anyone can explain why malaysia cannot build a highway without tolls. the quality of the highway built doesn't match with what we have to pay.If you compare with autoroute or autopista (both are tolled) our highway is not even close.Disappointed isn't it. Toll prices keep rising but the quality is a bit questionable.:ohno:

Sick of toll.

Hey guys, wanna ask. Is it true we will only pay toll for PLUS hiughway until 2011?

My friends say that's the original deal but BN may have revised and extend the tolling era by 30 years?

Hope so.

New toll plaza for Seremban


THE government will build a new toll plaza in Seremban to ease the traffic congestion into town and the surrounding areas.

The total cost for land acquisition and the construction of the toll plaza and an access road is RM168mil.

Rasah MP Anthony Loke Siew Fook said, however, that the project should be the responsibility of the highway concessionaire, instead of the government using public funds for it.

Peak-hour jams: Cars which exit the highway have to turn left into the road leading to Seremban 2 to make a U-turn to get to town. This stretch experiences massive traffic jam during peak hours.

“I was shocked when told by the Works Ministry that it will cost the government RM168mil to build the new toll plaza. The amount is almost as much as the state’s annual income of RM180mil,” he said.

Loke said this when visiting the existing toll plaza yesterday, accompanied by Senawang assemblyman P. Gunasekaren, Mambau assemblyman Wong May May, Bukit Kepayang assemblyman Cha Kee Chin and Temiang assemblyman Ng Chin Tsai.

According to Loke, Works Minister Datuk Mohd Zin Mohamad told him about the project and its cost in a written reply to a question he posed in Parliament last week.

Zin had said in his reply that the allocation would be sought during the mid-term review of the 9th Malaysia Plan.

Loke, who is also the Lobak assemblyman, said it was absurd to ask taxpayers to pay for the construction of a new toll plaza and then to pay again for driving on the highway.

“It is like going to the coffee shop and paying for your drink and then made to contribute towards the shop's rental or renovation. How can taxpayers' money be used to fund the building of infrastructure for a private company?” he asked.

Loke wondered whether such provisions were stated in the agreement signed between the concessionaire and government.

Cause of congestion: There are only two north-bound lanes at the Seremban toll plaza, and motorists do not even have the SmartTag privilege although thousands of motorists commute to Kuala Lumpur from here daily.

“It is illogical to have the agreement classified. If the government declassifies it, the people will know if such provisions were in the agreement,” he said.

Loke said that since Projek Lebuhraya Utara Selatan Bhd (Plus) had registered massive profits by operating the highway, it was only proper for it to pay for the construction of the new toll plaza.

He said the government should discuss the matter with the concessionaire before proceeding with the project.

“No one seems to know who should foot the bill for the project because the agreement is classified. We hope someone can enlighten the public on it,” he said.

Mentri Besar Datuk Seri Mohamad Hasan had said during an earlier interview that the existing toll plaza would not be closed after the new one was built.

Hasan said this was to allow for a smoother traffic flow as the new link would also eventually be connected to the Seremban Outer Ring Road.

Loke said, however, that the existing toll plaza had to be closed as it was the main cause of the massive traffic congestion into the new townships of Seremban 2 and Rasah Kemayan.

“The present toll plaza has to be closed as the road cannot accommodate the traffic volume. I hope the authorities would consider this as there is only one road leading into the Seremban 2 and Rasah Kemayan townships,” he said.

Several residents said they agreed with Loke that the toll plaza should be relocated.

Bank officer Gurbachan Singh, 42, said several accidents had been reported near the existing toll plaza as motorists coming from Seremban 2 had to cut across a busy stretch to enter the highway.

“A few people have died because of this. There is no traffic light to allow motorists heading north to turn safely to the toll plaza,” he said.

Motorist Syed Idris Syed Ibrahim said it was ridiculous that there were only two toll booths for traffic heading north and south.

“We don't even have a SmartTag lane here. This is rather strange,” he said.

Loke also proposed that the government abolish toll collection for the Seremban-Kuala Lumpur stretch.

“This stretch was the first to be built and it has been in use for more than 30 years. I think the road users have paid more than enough in the form of toll and it is time the stretch be made toll-free,” he said.

“This stretch was the first to be built and it has been in use for more than 30 years. I think the road users have paid more than enough in the form of toll and it is time the stretch be made toll-free,” he said.

hmm.......does it mean that the government will build a new toll plaza to replace the old toll plaza?
either way I think the toll thing should be scrapped off.......these people have been paying for more than 30 years......
and the toll plaza/land acquisition costs them $168million?! :eek2: serious? why is it so expensive?

Aiya the cheap construction can become expensive because of the time.
And the GCE has too much toll and expensive...

Haha VERY INTERESTING !!!

Anyone could found an area in the world which such much of Toll.

How about BKK? Manila?
