Motorists will enjoy travelling free of charge on the Burapha Withi Expressway and other expressways that connect with it from tomorrow until January 3 as a gift from the government to the public for the New Year.
The Cabinet yesterday resolved to exempt tolls for motorists from 12.01am on Thursday until midnight on January 3. The proposal for the waiver came from the Ministry of Transport.
The Expressway Authority of Thailand (EXAT) earlier announced a similar decision for toll ways under its authority. The roads where the free access were allowed by the state are the Burapha Withi Expressway from Bang Na to Chon Buri, the southern elevated road linking Suvarnabhumi Airport with the Burapha Withi expressway and the Kanchaphisek toll route from Bang Phli to Suksawad.
