Congested roads such as Bendemeer Road and Kallang Bahru will also have their ERP rates reduced.

According to the LTA, these revised rates are not permanent and will revert back to the pre-school holiday charges on 2 January 2020. The rates for other non-mentioned gantries will also remain unchanged during this period.
