Punjab Government Introduces Toll on 18 Roads
The caretaker government of Punjab has recently taken a strategic step to enhance revenue streams for vital infrastructure development and maintenance. In a recent meeting under Chief Minister Mohsin Naqvi, the provincial caretaker cabinet gave its approval to impose a toll tax on 18 roads across the province.
This decision reflects the government's commitment to securing additional funds for essential projects, ensuring the improvement and sustainability of the region's road infrastructure. The toll tax is poised to play a crucial role in financing much-needed developments and maintenance initiatives.
Notably, the designated roads for toll imposition cover a significant stretch from Bahawalpur to Hashilpur to Chishtian. This move indicates a comprehensive approach, ensuring that various regions within the province contribute to the funding of infrastructure projects. The toll tax's coverage on these roads aligns with the government's strategy to distribute the financial burden across different areas for equitable development.
In a further development, the government has decided to reinstate toll tax collection on highways spanning Gujranwala, Nankana Sahib, and Sheikhupura. This expansion of toll collection demonstrates a concerted effort to include major transportation routes, maximizing revenue collection for broader infrastructure initiatives.
While awaiting the issuance of an official notification by the Finance and Communication departments, the decision to impose toll taxes on these roads signifies a proactive measure by the caretaker government to address funding challenges and prioritize the enhancement of Punjab's road infrastructure. This move is expected to not only bolster revenue generation but also contribute significantly to the region's overall development and connectivity.
