Hike In Himachal Toll From April 1. Cars To Pay Rs 170 Instead Of Rs 70

Starting from April 1, visitors entering Himachal Pradesh will face significantly increased toll fees as part of the state's revised toll policy. The new rates will see private vehicles, such as cars, paying Rs 170, a substantial rise from the previous toll of Rs 70. This hike comes as the government aims to enhance revenue generation, likely reflecting increased maintenance costs and infrastructure improvements needed for the state's roads. The changes will impact both tourists and local commuters, with the state anticipating that the additional revenue will contribute to better road conditions and facilities in the region. As Himachal Pradesh continues to attract a large number of visitors, the adjusted toll rates may influence travel plans and tourism dynamics in the state.
