FASTag is mandatory for four-wheelers, but you can still pay cash at toll plazas. However, expect longer queues and potential delays during peak hours.
Do two-wheelers need FASTag in Telangana?
No, FASTag is not mandatory for two-wheelers. Motorcycles and scooters can pay cash at toll plazas, though FASTag is available as an option for convenience.
Are there discounts for frequent travelers?
Monthly passes are available for non-commercial vehicles residing within 20 km of toll plazas. Local users get concessions as welfare measures under different fee rules.
How often do toll rates change?
Annual revision is done w.e.f. 1st April and fees are rounded to nearest Rs 5. Some older roads built before 2008 follow different rules with fees rounded to Re 1.
