New increase in tolls on routes 5 and 7

He National Government approved the new toll rates which came into effect on Thursday, June 27 on all national routes and highways.

The 10 concession sections operated by Corredores Viales include route 5, which connects Luján with Santa Rosa, passing through Mercedes, and route 7 that connects Luján with Mendoza, passing through San Andrés de Giles.

The novelty of the new tariff table is the incorporation of a discount of up to 7% for those who pay with TelePASE. This is because fares paid in cash will be rounded to multiples of $100 to facilitate the change in payment methods, however, TelePASE users will be paid without rounding.

The new increase comes after the government decided to increase the rates for national roads and highways by 200 percent at the end of April. In less than two months, the toll went from 300 pesos to 1,000 pesos.

He new tariff schedule for national routes that pass through Luján, was formed as follows:

Vehicles with up to 2 axles and up to 2.30m in height and without double wheels: $1,000 manual payment and $925 with TelePASE.
Vehicles with up to 2 axles and more than 2.10 meters high or with double wheels: $1,900 manual payment and $1,850 with TelePASE.
