Thailand Extends Free Expressway Access Through September 29
The Expressway Authority of Thailand has extended the toll-free period for eight expressways until midnight on September 29 to assist those affected by ongoing flooding.
According to a report by Prachachat Business, the Expressway Authority of Thailand (EXAT), under the Ministry of Transport, has announced an extension of the toll-free policy for eight expressway routes. This measure will remain in effect until midnight on September 29, 2026.
This decision was made in response to the severe heavy rainfall and widespread flooding currently impacting multiple regions across the country. The initiative aims to alleviate the financial burden and facilitate travel for residents and commuters struggling with the ongoing flood situation.
For travelers and residents, this extension provides temporary relief for those navigating areas affected by the weather. It is important to note that this policy applies specifically to the eight routes designated by EXAT. As the situation remains fluid, motorists are advised to monitor official updates from the Expressway Authority of Thailand regarding road conditions and any potential further adjustments to toll policies beyond the September 29 deadline. Travelers should exercise caution when driving in flooded areas and verify their specific routes before departure.
