KINGSTON, Jamaica — MOTORISTS travelling the full length of the Highway 2000 North-South Link could soon pay $5,220 for a round trip between Caymanas and Ocho Rios under proposed new toll rates published by the Government on Thursday.

The Ministry of Energy, Transport and Telecommunications is proposing a capped toll of $2,610 each way for Class 1 vehicles, up $115, or approximately 4.6 per cent, from the $2,495 rate introduced last year.

Operators of Class 2 vehicles would pay $5,220 one way, while the proposed toll for Class 3 vehicles, including larger trucks, is $7,830. That would push the round-trip toll for a Class 3 vehicle to $15,660.
