Hazara Division Commissioner Syed Fayyaz Ali Shah has announced that the toll plazas being established in Naran and Havelian will exempt residents of both districts from toll taxes, which will instead be collected from vehicles arriving from other districts, particularly tourists.
Speaking to a public delegation, the commissioner said that the revenue generated from these toll plazas would be utilised for the development and maintenance of roads within the same areas.
He emphasised that the construction of toll plazas would not only benefit the local population but also bring prosperity and create new employment opportunities. He assured that the political leadership of the concerned areas would be taken into confidence before the toll plazas are constructed and no decision would be imposed.
