SINGAPORE - Electronic Road Pricing (ERP) rates across all chargeable gantries will be reduced by $1 due to lower traffic volume brought about by tightened Covid-19 restrictions.

The changes mean that 13 half-hour time slots will have ERP rates reduced to $0.

There will also be no charges on the Ayer Rajah Expressway and Kallang-Paya Lebar Expressway.

The Land Transport Authority (LTA) said the revised rates will apply from May 27 to June 27.

The rates will revert to pre-school holiday charges from June 28.

It said the implementation of phase two (heightened alert) measures, including full home-based learning from May 19, had led to fewer vehicles on the roads.
