Delhi-Jaipur highway: Back-breaking ride for toll payers, while authorities shift blame
Описание
The Delhi-Jaipur highway toll-road which should be a smooth ride is instead proving to be a back-breaking journey for commuters, who pay Rs 250-300 as toll. The highway stretch is particularly bad at the four flyovers between Bawal and Bilaspur. The stretch has been in a poor condition since November 2018, after Pink City Expressway Ltd. (PCEL) scraped and milled the surface for repaving. Reportedly, the banks turned down PCEL for the funds required for repairs. Meanwhile, the National Highway Authority of India (NHAI) gets the majority share of 58.6 per cent of the toll revenue. The total toll income on the 225 km stretch in 2017-18 was Rs 660 crore.
