## Policy Analysis Report: Toll Fee Determination on National Highway 927A in Rajasthan **1. Executive Summary:** This report analyzes a notification from the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways, Government of India, dated April 9, 2025, regarding the levy of fees for the use of a specific section of National Highway 927A in Rajasthan. This policy establishes toll rates for various vehicle types using the two-lane paved shoulder section between design km 208.550 to 256.700 (existing km 207.700 to 275.000). The fee collection is authorized to the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI), either directly or through a contractor. Key findings include the establishment of base toll rates, provisions for monthly passes, and stipulations for overloaded vehicles. **2. Introduction:** The purpose of this report is to provide a comprehensive analysis of the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways notification concerning the determination of toll fees on National Highway 927A in the State of Rajasthan. This analysis is based solely on the information provided within the notification text. **3. Policy Overview:** This is a *new policy* establishing toll rates. * **Core Objective(s):** The core objective of this policy is to levy fees for the use of a specific section of National Highway 927A in Rajasthan, enabling the recovery of infrastructure investment and ongoing maintenance costs. This is inferred from the setting of toll rates and authorization for fee collection. **4. Background and Rationale:** This policy likely addresses the need to finance the construction, maintenance, and operation of the Sagwara-Garhi-Partapur-Wajwana-Talwada-Banswara section of National Highway 927A. This is inferred from the estimated capital cost of the project (Rupees 379.94 crore) mentioned in the document. The establishment of a toll system is a common method for generating revenue to support highway infrastructure. **5. Key Provisions:** The policy establishes the following key provisions: * **Toll Rates:** Base toll rates are defined for different vehicle categories (Car/Jeep, Light Commercial Vehicle, Bus/Truck, etc.) based on the year 2007-08 (Table 1). These base rates are subject to annual revision. The toll will be levied at 60% of the rates in Table 1. * **Fee Plazas:** A fee plaza is designated at chainage 255741 of NH 927A, near Shivpura village in Banswara district (Table 2). * **Bypass Tolls:** Additional fees are levied for the use of bypasses longer than 60m, specifically Sagwara-Garhi-Partapur. The fee is 90% of the base rates (Table 3). * **Structure Tolls:** Additional fees are levied for structures longer than 60m, at 60% of the base rates (Table 4). * **Monthly Passes:** Monthly passes are available for non-commercial vehicles registered to individuals residing within 20 kilometers of the fee plaza, priced at Rs. 340.00 for the year 2024-25. * **Multiple Journey Passes:** Discounted rates are provided for multiple journeys within a 24-hour period and for fifty single journeys within one month (Table 5). * **Commercial Vehicle Discount:** Commercial vehicles registered in the district where the fee plaza is located receive a 50% discount on the specified rate, provided no service road or alternative road is available. * **Overloaded Vehicle Fee:** Vehicles exceeding permissible load limits are subject to additional fees. * **Definitions:** Definitions for vehicle categories, permissible load, exempted vehicles, service roads, and alternative roads are as per the National Highways Fee Determination of Rates and Collection Rules, 2008. * **Display of Fee Rates:** Fee rates must be displayed for public information. **6. Target Audience and Stakeholders:** The target audience and stakeholders directly affected by this policy include: * Vehicle owners and operators using the Sagwara-Garhi-Partapur-Wajwana-Talwada-Banswara section of National Highway 927A. * Residents living within 20 kilometers of the fee plaza. * Commercial vehicle operators registered in the Banswara district. * The National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) and its contractors. * State Government of Rajasthan **7. Implementation Aspects (Inferred):** * **Responsible Agency:** The National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) is responsible for collecting the fees. * **Timelines and Procedures:** The policy specifies that the actual toll amount and discounts will be calculated and revised annually by the NHAI, based on the base rates and completed section length. These revisions will be published in English and vernacular newspapers. * **Fee Collection Methods:** Fee collection can be done directly by NHAI officials or through a contractor. **8. Expected Outcomes / Impact of Changes:** The likely intended outcomes of this policy include: * Revenue generation to support the maintenance and operation of the National Highway 927A. * Recovery of the initial capital investment in the highway project. * Regulation of traffic flow and enforcement of weight restrictions. * Potential economic impact on local businesses and residents due to toll costs. **9. Conclusion:** This policy notification establishes a framework for toll collection on National Highway 927A in Rajasthan. It outlines the applicable toll rates, discounts, and responsibilities for fee collection. The implementation of this policy is crucial for the financial sustainability and ongoing maintenance of this important transportation artery.
