Toll relief is on the way for drivers across our state with the NSW Liberal and Nationals Government\u2019s Toll Relief Rebate Scheme open for applications from 24 January.\u00a0
\u00a0
Treasurer Matt Kean said under the new and improved toll relief initiative, around half a million drivers will be able to claim 40 percent of their toll spend up to $750 a year.\u00a0
\u00a0
\u201cThe new Toll Relief Rebate Scheme will start putting money back into drivers\u2019 bank accounts once they spend $375 a year on tolls,\u201d Mr Kean said.
\u00a0
\u201cWe\u2019ve more than doubled the number of drivers eligible for toll relief and for the first time, pensioners will be able to claim a rebate while still receiving free car registration.\u201d
\u00a0
Minister for Metropolitan Roads Natalie Ward said the new toll relief scheme will make traveling more affordable particularly for those in West and South West Sydney.
\u00a0
\u201cDrivers from Casula to Liverpool, Rouse Hill and Campbelltown will be the big winners, but everyone across New South Wales will have the chance to cash in on the new Toll Relief Rebate Scheme,\u201d Mrs Ward said.
\u00a0
\u201cThis is about putting more cash into the pockets of hardworking NSW families at a time when they are feeling the pinch from cost of living pressures.\u00a0
\u00a0
\u201cWe\u2019re making sure everyone gets the chance to use our world class motorway network which saves families precious time, gets tradies to more jobs and creates a safer journey for all.\u201d
\u00a0
Minister for Customer Service and Digital Government Victor Dominello said the new scheme will be administered through Service NSW and payments would start flowing into bank accounts within days.\u00a0
\u00a0
\u201cThis is just one of 70 cost of living rebates on offer from the NSW Liberal and National Government, which is adding money to household budgets across the state,\u201d Mr Dominello said.
\u00a0
\u201cEligible customers can log into their Service NSW account, link to their toll account before lodging their toll relief rebate claim. And there will always be the option to go into, or call, a Service NSW Centre for assistance.\u00a0Claims will then be paid directly into their nominated\u00a0bank account.\u00a0
\u00a0
\u201cStart the New Year right by boosting your household budget through Service NSW. You can assess your eligibility for the rebates by using the Savings Finder tool or booking an appointment with a Saving Specialist.\u201d
\u00a0
Rebates will be backdated to 1 July 2022 and payments will start to flow from within days of applications being received.
