Toll Exemptions for Christmas Holiday

The Malaysian government has announced toll exemptions on December 23 and 24 in conjunction with the Christmas holiday. The exemption will only apply to personal cars, which are categorized as Class 1 vehicles.

What are the Details?

The toll exemptions will be implemented at all highways from 12.01am on Monday, December 23, and end at 11.59pm the following day. However, the exemption will not apply to tolls at the country’s borders, namely the Sultan Iskandar Building and Tanjung Kupang toll plazas.

Cost to the Government

This initiative will cost the government about RM38 million, according to Works Minister Alexander Nanta Linggi.

Preparation for Highways

Motorists are advised to use the MyPLUS-TTA application and ensure their Touch ‘n Go card or e-wallet has sufficient balance before planning their journeys. The Malaysian Highway Authority (LLM) director-general Sazali Harun expects traffic to rise sharply on major highways, with over two million vehicles expected to use the highways daily, as travelers make their way across the peninsular for Christmas celebrations on Wednesday and the year-end school holidays.

Traffic Management

To ensure smooth traffic flow during the Christmas holiday, LLM has directed all highway concessionaires to make thorough preparations, to ensure safe and seamless journeys for highway users. Motorists can check live updates on highway traffic through the official social media accounts of LLM and highway concessionaires, or by contacting the LLM Traffic Management Centre at 1-800-88-7752.
