You know what they say: In Singapore, we pay and pay – whether it’s GST, COE for cars or property taxes, there are plenty of fees we’ve got to bear in this city. But here’s some welcome news for those who drive: Electronic Road Pricing (ERP) rates will be temporarily reduced till the second-last day of the month, specially for the June school holidays.
These ERP discounts are ongoing at a total of five locations in Singapore until June 29, 2025. Regular rates will be back in place on June 30, Monday, when the new school term officially begins. It’s just a $1 reduction across the board at the selected spots, but hey, a discount is a discount regardless. This also means that gantries that typically deduct $1 during other periods would thus let you cruise past at no cost for the next few weeks.
Concurrently, those who drive should also be aware of the new Vehicle Entry Permit (VEP) requirement for Singaporean vehicles driving into Malaysia, which costs about $3. Not having a valid one would result in a fine when you’re travelling to Johor Bahru.
Lowered ERP rates from June 2 to June 29, 2025, according to the Land Authority of Singapore:
AYE before Alexandria towards city
- 8am to 8.30am: Previously $1, currently $0
Southbound CTE after Braddell Road and PIE sliproad into southbound CTE (set of four gantries)
- 7.30am to 8.30am: Previously $2, currently $1
- 9am to 9.30am: Previously $4, currently $3
- 9.30am to 10am: Previously $3, currently $2
Southbound CTE before Braddell Road
- 7am to 7.30am: Previously $2, currently $1
PIE (Adam and Mount Pleasant, set of two gantries)

- 8.30am to 9am: Previously $2, currently $1
- 9am to 9.30am: Previously $1, currently $0
The ERP rates for non-listed gantries will remain the same as always. In the meantime, enjoy the lowered rates at these locations while they last.
