As of March 31, 2022, the Automatic Passing System (OGS) devices in the vehicles will be replaced by HGS, but it is curious what the price paid for these devices, which have been used for many years, will be. Officials of the General Directorate of Highways stated that the PTT and banks were in talks and that a formula was sought for the citizens to pass to HGS without being victimized.
Authorities, “The device price can also be refunded, and it can be used as a balance in the HGS account. But without delay, our citizens will be informed about this situation," he said.
Banking sources stated that they are only intermediaries in the OGS application, and that the system runs entirely on Highways.
However, the former bureaucrats of the Highways claimed that the OGS devices were sold by the banks to the car owners, and therefore the money was paid to them.
Why was OGS Removed?
There were 2 systems in the collection of toll highways and bridges in Turkey. However, these 2 systems, which were implemented as OGS and HGS, caused confusion in the passage of tolls from the direction of highway users. In particular, the system was changed to reduce the workload, increase efficiency and provide better service. As of March 31, OGS will be removed. Highway and bridge tolls will be collected via HGS. What OGS subscriber vehicle owners should do was conveyed with the explanation made.
