+ | |||
+ | <h3 style="font-size: 20px; font-weight: bold; color: #202122; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; margin: 15px 0 8px 0;">Can I avoid Assam tolls completely?</h3> | ||
+ | <p style="font-size: 16px; color: #202122; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 1.6; margin: 8px 0;">Yes, you can use state highways and rural roads to avoid tolls, but expect 30-90 minutes additional travel time and less maintained road conditions. National highways provide better connectivity and road quality.</p> | ||
+ | |||
+ | <h3 style="font-size: 20px; font-weight: bold; color: #202122; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; margin: 15px 0 8px 0;">What happens if I don't pay Assam tolls?</h3> | ||
+ | <p style="font-size: 16px; color: #202122; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 1.6; margin: 8px 0;">All toll plazas in Assam are manned and require payment before passage. Without FASTag, you must pay cash at the toll booth. There are no automated systems that allow passage without payment.</p> | ||
+ | |||
+ | <h3 style="font-size: 20px; font-weight: bold; color: #202122; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; margin: 15px 0 8px 0;">Do motorcycles pay tolls in Assam?</h3> | ||
+ | <p style="font-size: 16px; color: #202122; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 1.6; margin: 8px 0;">Yes, motorcycles and two-wheelers pay tolls in Assam at reduced rates, typically 50-60% of car rates. FASTag is available for motorcycles as well.</p> | ||
+ | |||
+ | <h3 style="font-size: 20px; font-weight: bold; color: #202122; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; margin: 15px 0 8px 0;">Are there any toll-free timings?</h3> | ||
+ | <p style="font-size: 16px; color: #202122; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 1.6; margin: 8px 0;">No, Assam toll plazas operate 24/7 with no toll-free windows. However, some plazas may offer discounts for local residents or frequent users.</p> | ||
+ | |||
+ | <h3 style="font-size: 20px; font-weight: bold; color: #202122; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; margin: 15px 0 8px 0;">Can I use FASTag from other states?</h3> | ||
+ | <p style="font-size: 16px; color: #202122; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 1.6; margin: 8px 0;">Yes, FASTag is interoperable across all states in India. Any FASTag issued by authorized banks works at all toll plazas in Assam and throughout the country.</p> | ||
