KLANG: The government has decided to end toll-free travel during festive seasons and will instead introduce a "more targeted approach", said Works Minister Datuk Seri Alexander Nanta Linggi.

He said this was decided at a Cabinet meeting last year.

"According to the decision, there will be no toll waivers, and 2024 was the last year for the provision of toll-free travel during festive seasons.

"The government has also streamlined subsidies for a more targeted approach to benefit Malaysians, with the details to be announced soon," he said.

He said this at a press conference after officially opening Section 2 of the West Coast Expressway (WCE) here today.
