Selected ERP rates change from 2 June 2026, according to LTA’s latest rate-revision notice. For drivers, the practical impact is not just the extra charge at one gantry; it is whether the usual commute still makes sense at the same time of day.
ERP changes are meant to manage congestion, so the reader task is simple: look at the revised time band, compare it with your normal route, then decide whether a small timing shift, public transport swap or alternate route is worth it.
Who Should Pay Attention
Drivers who cross priced expressway or city gantries during peak periods should pay attention first. This includes office commuters, school-run drivers, private-hire drivers, delivery drivers and anyone making repeat trips where a small daily increase becomes a visible monthly cost.
The change also matters for families planning June holiday activities. A trip that looks cheap on parking alone can become less attractive if it crosses a peak ERP window and returns through another priced section.
- Effective date: 2 June 2026.
- Best action: compare your usual departure time with the revised ERP band.

How To Adjust
Do the maths by trip type. If you only drive into town once, the rate may not change the decision. If you cross the same gantry ten or more times a week, shifting the trip by 10 to 20 minutes may be worth considering.
