Commuters traveling along national highways passing through Jaipur are facing an extra financial burden as the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) implements a fresh toll tax hike. Rates across major regional transit points have been bumped up anywhere between ₹5 and ₹30 depending on the vehicle category. With these revised tariffs taking immediate effect, frequent travelers, cab operators, and transport businesses plying the crucial arterial routes connecting the Pink City to Delhi, Agra, Ajmer, and Sikar will need to adjust their travel budgets accordingly.Revised Toll Rates Across Major Jaipur Toll PlazasThe upward tariff revision has directly impacted several prominent transit corridors handling heavy daily traffic around Jaipur. Notable fee adjustments have been officially enforced at the Manoharpur toll plaza situated on the old Jaipur-Delhi national highway, the Sitarampura toll on the arterial ring road linking the Ajmer and Agra highways, and the Tantiyawas toll plaza positioned along the busy Jaipur-Sikar bypass, making cross-city and interstate commuting noticeably more expensive.Specific Fare Breakdown: What Cars and Heavy Vehicles Will Now PayA closer look at the revised fee structure highlights the varying impact on different vehicle classes. At the Manoharpur toll on the old Jaipur-Delhi route, fares for light motor vehicles like cars and jeeps have gone up by ₹5, while heavy transport vehicles, including trucks and buses, face a steeper hike of up to ₹30. Additionally, at the Shahjahanpur toll point, fees for cars, jeeps, and vans have increased by ₹20, taking the updated single-journey rate from ₹195 to ₹215. Consequently, private vehicle drivers embarking on a one-way trip from Jaipur to Delhi will now shell out ₹395 instead of the previous ₹375.
