The Big Story Ep 36: New ERP system to start in 2023 but no distance-based charging yet

8:41 mins

Synopsis: This is a special episode of The Straits Times' video series The Big Story.

Motorists welcome the additional features of the next-generation Electronic Road Pricing system, but feel its three-piece onboard unit is clunky, inelegant and takes up too much space.

Some drivers also hope a distance-based charging platform can be implemented soon, so upfront car taxes can be reviewed. How will Singapore drivers be affected by the new ERP system?

Senior transport correspondent Christopher Tan weighs in on the issue with The Big Story hosts Hairianto Diman and Olivia Quay.
