The Federation of Pakistan Chambers of Commerce and Industry president Mian Anjum Nisar has called for stopping double toll collection on the Faisalabad-Pindi Bhattian motorway (M-3).
He suggested the government to shift the second toll plaza to somewhere else, as it is unjust to charge extra tax in the same area.
He said that the purpose of the motorway is to make travel faster and safer but the government is doing otherwise and inviting the public anger. He said that the government has been collecting toll tax from interchange to interchange and the motorists have been paying it without any complaint although the rates of the toll are increased frequently. He said that the travelers had to wait for hours for their turn to pay the toll due to manual way of tax collection.
Mian Anjum Nisar lamented that instead of facilitating the motorists the National Highway Authority is making the travel difficult even on the motorways.
