The National Road Fund Agency (NRFA) has collected over K1 billion from Toll Gates this year, representing a 126 percent collection performance efficiency in 2023.
NRFA Public Relations Manager Alphonsius Hamachila says the K1.1 billion was raised from 38 Toll collection points across the country between January and May 2023, against a target of K887 million during this period.
Speaking at the ongoing Zambia International Trade Fair in Ndola, Mr. Hamachila said the NRFA, through the Ministry of Finance and National Planning was channelling most of this revenue towards dismantling arrears owed to road contractors and consultants.
And Mr. Hamachila has called on motorists to take advantage of the cashless payment system through the acquisition of the Electronic Toll Cards as this was a faster and efficient way of paying tolls.
