A project to introduce toll stations on key highways across the country has been suspended, the Treasury has revealed, pending fresh identification of roads that would be placed under the pay-for-use scheme.

The Treasury said the project, which targeted to raise funds to finance maintenance of the highways and repayment of other roads built by private contractors but failed to generate enough funds to repay investors, would remain frozen as the State reviews the roads and highways to go under the tolling scheme.
