Paid areas M4 "Don": rules and places of payment

Without exaggeration, the M4 highway Don can be called one of the main transport arteries of Russia. It begins in Moscow and ends after 1543 kilometers in Novorossiysk, passing nearby or through such important cities as Voronezh, Rostov-on-Don, Krasnodar.

Every year, millions of people choose this road, going to the Sea of ​​Azov, in Sochi, Crimea or Anapa. The highway is constantly being upgraded, high-speed paid sections of M4 are being built. They allow you to quickly go around settlements and reduce the number of traffic jams.

Toll road M4: payment rules

The fee is charged at special points located on the highway. They are visible from afar, and it is impossible to drive past them. When approaching the paid section M4, the driver needs to slow down, choose one of the lanes leading to the ticket office. Electronics will automatically determine the category of the car, and the amount payable will be displayed on the display near the cash register. You can pay in cash or by credit card.

Paid sections of M4 have two tariffs, depending on the time of day: from midnight to seven in the morning the night tariff is in effect, it is significantly lower than the daily rates that last from seven in the morning to midnight.

Transponder

There is another way to reduce the cost of travel on the M4 Don highway. Paid areas will be cheaper if you pay using a transponder attached to the glass. It can be bought at special points of sale. A transponder is a small electronic device with a battery that lasts for several years of operation.

The principle of its operation is simple: at the entrance to the payment points, the driver changes lanes with the T-Pass sign and reduces the speed to 20 km / h, a single signal sounds and the preferential cost is removed from the account remotely. There is no need to stop, get money or a card, get change, wasting time. As a rule, there are no traffic jams on T-Pass rows, unlike regular rows.

A transponder is especially beneficial for drivers who constantly use this road. Even with systematic trips from the capital to Voronezh, the savings are significant. The main thing is not to forget to replenish the account. This can be done through the Personal Account, using payment terminals, electronic money, from a phone or ATM. Moreover, if the money in the personal account comes to an end, the transponder will warn the owner with a double signal.
