13 Out Of 33 Concessionaries Yet To Agree To MLFF Implementation
The deputy minister stated that changes to current legislation, especially those pertaining to toll payment evasion, would be necessary in order to implement a gateless toll system.
13 of Malaysia's 33 highway concessionaires have yet to agree to the implementation of the multi-lane free-flow (MLFF) gateless toll collection system, and negotiations with all concession companies are ongoing, with a deadline of December 16, 2024, Deputy Works Minister Datuk Seri Ahmad Maslan told the Dewan Rakyat yesterday.
Ahmad Maslan claims that the MLFF system, whose implementation is scheduled to start by 2025 at a cost of RM3.46 billion, is complicated and amounts to a "concession over a concession" arrangement.
“We have 33 highway concessionaires, but not all of them are on board yet. As of now, 20 companies are engaged in negotiations, while 13 are still holding out. If we fail to secure unanimous agreement by December 16, we will propose alternative solutions,” Ahmad said in response to a question from Muhammad Fawwaz Mohamad Jan (PN-Permatang Pauh).
Although only 0.01% of drivers avoid tolls, he pointed out that the MLFF system would need to address problems like tailgating and gate-ramming.
