“The Minister of Works is in discussion with the Minister of Finance as far as that tolling system is concerned. One of the chapters in that tolling strategy relates to how much motorists will be expected to pay for the different classes of the vehicles to plie the expressway,” Mr Wani said at a press conference at Unra offices in Kampala yesterday.
