Toll Roads (Malaysia) View history

← Back to Main Page (Malaysia)

Development and management of toll roads in Malaysia are regulated by the Malaysian Highway Authority (MHA). Toll collection and road maintenance are carried out by respective concessionaires.

In Malaysia, there are two toll systems; open and closed.

Closed-toll system highways are the ones which you take the ticket when you enter and pay when you exit, e.g. North-South Expressway. These roads will be marked 'tolled road' entirely.

Open-toll system highways are the ones which you pay toll at booths on certain segments on the highway, e.g. Federal Highway. By right, 'tolled road' should be marked only on segments from toll booths to the nearest exit on both sides.


Avoid Toll Roads Feature in Waze

In the Waze client app, you are able manually select alternative toll-free routes from the menu after locking in your destination. Waze should give you a route which avoids closed-toll roads entirely and lets you enter open-toll roads with no toll booth segments. However, automatic toll-free route calculation via the Avoid Toll Roads feature has yet to be enabled for Malaysia, pending confirmation of toll road marking of the entire Malaysian expressway system by our map editors.


A target of 90% marked toll roads must be achieved before informing Waze Support, so they can release the Avoid Toll Roads setting in the client app, so Wazers can choose if they prefer toll-free routing on a regular basis.


You can now help Wazers in Malaysia to achieve this target, with a new feature available today in the map editor. Mark toll roads in your area by selecting road segments and flagging them Toll Road in segment properties.
