According to an article by the Straits Times, Electronic Road Pricing (ERP) prices at five locations islandwide would be increased by $1 come 13 February 2023.
This is in response to the increased traffic on the roads.
Here are the locations affected by the increase
On Monday, the Land Transport Authority (LTA) said that the following locations will have their prices increase at nine chosen time periods.
This was because traffic on these roads had been piling up, affecting several stretches and this was observed throughout the month of January 2023.
The affected ERPs are:
- AYE towards Tuas (After North Buona Vista)
- CTE after Braddell Road (Southbound), PIE slip road to CTE (Southbound), Total of 4 gantries
- CTE auxillary lane to PIE Changi/Serangoon Road (Southbound)
- KPE (ECP) after Defu Flyover
- PIE before Eunos (Westbound)
The ERP rates were last adjusted in November last year where three locations were affected and increased by a dollar.
