Cashless toll payment is soon to be completed by San Miguel Corporation (SMC) in all of its tollways by January 2021. SMC President and chief operating officer Ramon S. Ang said its SMC tollways will offer free installation of RFID stickers to everyone who wishes to use its tollways.
The initiative was recommended by the Toll Regulatory Board (TRB) through the Land Transportation and Franchising Regulatory Board (LTFRB).
With cashless toll payment, direct hand contact will be limited and social distancing will be maintained amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
