Going to Genting this long weekend? You’ll need to pay RM5 toll starting Thursday

Going to Genting this long weekend? You’ll need to pay RM5 toll starting Thursday

Malay Mail

KUALA LUMPUR, May 26 — Motorists heading to Genting Highlands will soon need to factor in a new road charge, with Lingkaran Cekap Sdn Bhd (LCSB) set to begin collecting fees on Jalan Genting Highlands from Thursday, May 28.

LCSB, the authorised road operator for the popular highland route, announced the charges will be rolled out in two phases, covering entry points at Genting Sempah and the Gohtong Jaya roundabout.

What you'll pay

Private car and van drivers will be charged RM5 per entry at either checkpoint.

Commercial vehicle operators will face steeper rates: Medium lorries at RM15 and heavy lorries at RM25.

Meanwhile, taxis will be charged RM3.30 and buses RM5.

Motorcycles are fully exempt and need not register with LCSB. Emergency vehicles are likewise exempt.

Who gets a discount or free pass

Civil servants working at government institutions on the hill — including SK and SMK Sri Layang, Institut Aminuddin Baki, both Genting Highlands and Gohtong Jaya police stations, the fire station, Klinik Desa Sri Layang, and several district and state government offices — may register their private vehicles for exemption.

They will need to enter via designated Lorong Khas lanes or through Licence Plate Recognition (LPR) systems.

Residents get more time — and options

Permanent residents of Genting Highlands will not be affected until the second phase kicks in on June 28.

LCSB will allow eligible residents to register up to two Class 1 vehicles and choose between a preferential rate — 10 per cent below the standard charge per entry — or a six-month season pass granting unlimited access throughout its validity period.

Where to find out more

LCSB said full details on vehicle categories, registration procedures, preferential rates, and a set of frequently asked questions are available at the official website.

Road users are encouraged to check the website for updates as exemption and preferential rate policies will be reviewed periodically.

The announcement comes just at the start of a school term break and headed into an extended long weekend, starting with Hari Raya Aidiladha tomorrow.
