GANDHINAGAR: The National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) has announced a temporary suspension of toll collection on a 28.71-kilometre stretch of the Amritsar–Jamnagar Expressway from Tuesday, citing ongoing repair work.
The decision applies specifically to Package-4 of the Sanchore–Santalpur section (NH-754K), a key segment of the Bharatmala project.
According to an official NHAI statement, toll collection on this stretch has been halted since 8 a.m. and will remain suspended until the scheduled maintenance is completed.
The move aims to avoid undue inconvenience to commuters while essential roadwork is underway. The Sanchore–Santalpur corridor, spanning approximately 125 kilometres from Rajasthan to Gujarat's Patan district, is a vital economic artery in the region.
Designed as part of the Bharatmala initiative, the Amritsar-Jamnagar Expressway plays a critical role in boosting cross-regional connectivity between India’s northern states and its eastern economic zones.
