National Highways Authority of India [NHAI] Complaints & Reviews

Sir, I am currently traveling on State Highway 156, NH 211 road this is from Ambajogai city to Lokhandi sawargaon . I hVe been traveling on this road frequently past few months, quality of the road is fast deteriorating. I am very sure this road was laid not too long ago but now complete asphalting has gone and road is in complete mess being hazardous to travel. Number of accidents occured due to this . Need to understand what measures are taken rectify, who is the current contractor, and how long this would take. Pls also explain the current spend on the maintenance...

At the toll booth, toll fee of Rs. 65/- is payble. Usually the staff available at booth does not give change of Rs. 5/-. They always insist to take biscuit packet in lieu of Rs. 5/-. Whenever consumer have change they take it otherwise they don't give change and misbehave to the consumers. On 03.11.2013 I was going from Udaipur to Chittorgarh and I have been pressurised by the toll staff to take the biscuit even they were having change they denied to give the change and misbehaved. The receipt No. was 7B - 19 Emp. ID : 107 for car No. RJ09CA1009. Please look into the matter and take necessary action for this type of acts.

Since june 2013 the new contractor incharge of vanagaram toll plaza is denying concessional monthly pass to commuters who have been availing the same at the rate of 200 rs.they are charging 890rs 25 trips which is more than 4 times the rate just the previous month.they are misquoting some go and are not giving a clear reply to our querries.has the ministry changed rules suddenly or are the contractors taking local residents for granted...

Dear Sir / Madam,

I have been seeing is at several Toll Plaza that Choclates are been forcefully used in lieu of 1 or 2 Rs.change.

For example at "AHMEDABAD RING ROAD INFRASTRUCTURE LTD.", RANASAN TOLL PLAZA
(Ref. : KM. of ROAD 17.076 to 42.594)

Toll charge here for single journey is 24 Rs. In last 15 days; I had crossed this toll booth not less than 4 times. And always they either purposefully dont keep change or they are in greed of doing business of local choclates. Choclates are given back; if you give 25 Rs. than they give 1 choclate in lieu of 1 Rs. If you give Rs.30 they would give you 2 choclates and change of 4 Rs. See here they can arrange for Rs.4 change but sold 2 choclates.

It is literally a business to fool common man. Either make it compulsary for Toll booth to give back adequate money. Or either make round figure toll amt. Let it be Rs.25. Let the fund be used by NHAI for roads rather than the Toll Manager doing business of choclates. Suggest to keep round figure amt.

It is not matter of 1 Rs. It is the matter of cheating common public.

Hope a justified result will be taken in immediate turn around time as its not the matter where the authority will have to waste lot of time to take decision for common public; for whom these infrastructure is made. And not for the General store business of Toll Owner.

Thanks and Regards.

sir i travelled recently to goa last month and the condition of road from satara to pune is worse, also toll is being collected for six laning even though work is not complete. the roads where there is diversion is horrible and filled with big potholes. Also, the toll reciept does not mention vehicle no. on reciept and hence tough to make any claim against toll agency. the toll agency should print Vehicle no. if insisted by owner of car.

Dear sir, I here by inform you that surat to ankleshwar highway no 8 is damaged so badely it may done accident on road there are one feet deep hole on road so that it will be more Denver to whicles on road also.

The condition of NH47 road from nageroil to Kaliyakkavilai is very bad, which consumes lot of time while travelling through the read. This road leads to hospitals like KIMMS and Medical college Trivandrum, due to the poor road conditions the commutation/transportaion of accident victims and other persons with serious illeness is affected, which causes life losses and other permanent illnesss. This is also creating a problem or nusiance for people commuting to offices, students and other sector of people.So Kindly look this issue as a priority and fix the road in this particular strectch.

I was traveling on the NH218 between Hubli and Bijapur last weekend. Was thrilled with the improvements and new laid highway. My joy was short lived as I began to discover the highway becoming more and more dangerous and life threatening to drive. The speed breakers laid down on this stretch are ridiculously unscientific and un-imaginably dangerous. Not only there are no indications of the speed breakers worse even is the dangerous manner in which these are constructed. Do the NHAI and the contractors have any brains while these are made? Do they have any sense of building and constructing roads in a scientific manner?

The manner in which the humps are constructed have caused serious injuries to the travellers.
Dont the NHAI understand that by making such killer speed humps, how much of damage they can cause older citizens (mostly rural having limited access to hospitals), young children and most importantly pregnant woman? NHAI should solely be held responsible for causing major accidents let alone bad driving be another factor. Can the NHAI not think of simpler and effective mechanisms of regulating speed on the highways with alternate approaches than speed breaking humps?
NHAI please wake-up from the deep slumber act before you take away any more lives!!
This is not just limited to one above mentioned highway, but in general for public interest.

I have sent this clarification to many persons on NHAI , but i have not received any response. I feel very bad . That is the reason i am sending this issue in this site. And advance thanks for your answer.

I have a Tamil Nadu registration Car.(Registered in Trichy City RTO TN45 ). I have changed my work place from Trichy city to Chengalpattu city. (Chengalpattu RTO- TN19)

I am going to office daily via Paranur Fee Plaza. (Chengalpattu --> Mahindra World City --- I am going to use only 6 KM only in NH45)

I am ready to take Local Monthly Pass. I have Requested the same LOCAL MONTHLY PASS, but Paranur Fee Plaza staffs are telling, i can not get local pass (200Rs). since my car has TRICHY City Registration(TN45 But in Tamil Nadu only).
They are telling if my car registered in CHENGALPATTU City (TN19) then only i can get 200Rs Monthly pass.Here i am going to work 5 years. Kindly confirm me this procedure.(do i need to use OUT Station pass only for 5 years)

I am ready to submit my transfer Order and local residency agreements .

Anybody have any solution for this?

NH 80 in bhagalpur bihar..i guess is the worst road in this whole world..it has a load of trucks similar to major expressways but the road is completely broken... 30km strech in done in 3 hours...it is depressing n disgusting! the commuters are just helpless...no one is there to help them....Considering the load of vehicles it should be a 4 laned expressway .

This is to inform you that in district samba ,just 4 km appxt. from samba city towards jammu city at village nanak chak, NH 1A passes over a nallah.There is provision of drainage of water during rainy days under NH 1A in the nallah.but the nallah has been filled by some people,due to which drainage of water has been blocked and flood becomes diverted towards left side of nallah.The flood comes over NH 1A due to which NH 1A may be damaged. There you are requested to look into the matter & solve it.

I m daily commuter of delhi hapur and passes through dasna toll plaza. earlier the charges for lmv was Rs 15 for one way and Rs 20 for both ways.from last week they have increased the both way rate to Rs 30. There is no system for monthly passes for those who are resident other than neraby that place. We demand the authority to bring back the earlier rates so that we are not burdened with this unwarranted increase

Respected Sir Madam
I am a resident of borivali. I noticed that on the Western Express Highway many of the places pever blocks are fixed which is very dangerous for two wheelers and three wheelers, the roads are uneven due to which water logging is taking place and there is a high risk of accidents and loss of life.
I request you to take alternate solution instead of pever blocks and take immediate action as monsoon is nearing for betterment of the people in near future.

On 11th March I was travelling from Delhi to Jaipur on NH-8, while crossing toll plaza at Manoharpura Plaza I faced in lots of problems.

1. While paying toll tax in lane no 07 I wait for 20 min.
2. One another Jeep passing before me was standing in toll booth for more then 10 min and passed without paying toll tax, toll plaza staff was helping in loading passengers in that Jeep which took 10 min to cross this from toll booth.
3. When I raised this to toll staff they misbehaved with me very badly and not ready to listen on Jeep toll issue.
4. When I asked the name of person setting in toll booth he simply says you can not do any thing against me and not ready to tell his name.
5. All of sudden 4-5 toll staff came there and start fevering their staff.
6. My car Regn no was 9798 where as I have issued toll receipt of Regn No 4589 not able to understand this.
7. I hope there are camera recording systems in there in toll plaza, which can be checked for this case.

Date of travel: 11th March 2012
Trans ID: [protected]
Toll lane no -07
User ID: Nand 0783

Hoping in an early resolution on this complaint

The road condition of NH 2 is very bad and toll charges are not reasonable as per the road. Infact the road condition at toll booth is very bad that you have may not understand it is because of toll tax or artificial creation of bad road, so all vehicles will slow down.
From Delhi to Varanasi, distance would be somewhere 800 kms, and toll tax is more than 350 /- (includes 10-12 toll plaza). I have asked several time to toll plaza person why you are charging toll when roads are not good. Their answer if we need to pay to several parties, and we build road with toll money then how can we survive. There is no maintenance of road, specially few areas where road condition is worst. I can provide you some place name where condition is very bad.: starting from Delhi...
1. Mathura
2. After Agra there are 2 toll tax where road condition is very bad
3. Sirsaganj
4. Gopiganj
5. Maharaj Ganj
And if you proceed to Mughalsarai then the elevated road condition is pathetic, for small car it is tough to drive because can engine and silencer can touch the road anytime, this is because overloaded trucks makes a lanes. Worst part is, if I ask them to provide complaint register then they have no register and always ask me provide complaint on plain paper which is kind of joke for me.

Please justify the toll tax that we paid to NHAI and provide better roads.
