PLUS has announced that it will perform upgrading works on the RFID system at selected toll plazas nationwide. The work will happen from 1am to 4am on August 17 (tomorrow) and 18. During this time, RFID lanes will be closed and users can use Touch n Go cards as payment.

The toll plazas involved are the nine toll plazas from Hutan Kampung to Sungai Dua, Penang Bridge, Jitra, BKE Kubang Semang and Lunas, SPDH Mambau and Lukut, and Kempas. Also included are Malaysia-Singapore Second Link (Linkedua) toll plazas at Perling, Lima Kedai and Tanjung Kupang.

PLUS started accepting RFID for toll payments from last year. Touch n Go’s RFID now comes in DIY self-fitment kit form, and you can watch this video to see how we did it. Besides toll payment, they are trialling fuel payment via RFID now.

  • Been hearing this rfid many2 years ago. Until now still not fully implemented. What a record in project management.

  • I would strongly recommend you to leave an extra lane for smart tag only, at the moment until the pilot run session all over and proven super reliable. Reduce one of the tng lane and change it to rfid instead of fully changing off all the smart tag lanes.
