Singapore running pilot for ERP 2 location-based charging

The motorist will proceed to clear immigration and drive away from the immigration booth. The OBU will then show a notification with the amount to be charged when the vehicle drives on the Woodlands Causeway or Tuas Second Link.

The OBU will then show a successful deduction.

A new roadside electronic parking (REP) system will also be trialled for the 1,000 vehicles starting in August. 

The system will let motorists start parking sessions through their vehicle’s OBU, instead of only the Parking.sg app. 

It can also automatically detect when the vehicle leaves, end the session and calculate charges, removing the need to manually stop parking. 

As of May 31, about 960,000 vehicles or more than 96 per cent of vehicles in Singapore have installed the ERP 2 OBU. Since the installation of OBUs was extended to foreign-registered vehicles from Apr 1, over 5,700 foreign-registered vehicles have opted to install the OBU.

Motorists not participating in the trial may also provide their feedback on the trial road signs and markings at LTA_Pilot_GNSS [at] lta.gov.sg by Jul 31.
