FASTag programme uses radio-frequency identification technology, which provides users a smooth crossover at toll plazas without halting. The payment is made digitally through the FASTag linked to the bank wallet.

"During every journey, five per cent of the toll amount will be directly deposited in the FASTag account of vehicle owners travelling on Mumbai-Pune Expressway and Bandra-Worli Sea Link," Vijay Waghmare, joint managing director of the MSRDC said.

The Ministry of Road Transport and Highways has appointed MSRDC as a Nodal agency to develop the necessary infrastructure for FASTag system at toll plazas across the state.
