No need to wait for notification from LTA to replace IU or go through its booking portal

Vehicle owners can now make appointments directly with their preferred authorised workshops to install the ERP 2.0 on-board unit (OBU), which is required for the satellite-based system.

The Land Transport Authority (LTA) on Oct 29 said there is no need for owners to wait for an official notification from LTA to replace their in-vehicle units (IUs) or to go through the authority's booking portal.

This move will offer vehicle owners the convenience of combining their OBU installation with other services, such as vehicle servicing, to save time, LTA said.

The vehicle owner or a designated representative can take the vehicle to the workshop for installation, which could take two to four hours, depending on the make and model of the vehicle and its condition. No documents are required.

From November, LTA will progressively send official notifications to owners of Singapore-registered vehicles to remind them to install the OBU, which works with the existing Electronic Road Pricing and parking gantries.

The OBU is slated to be installed in all vehicles by 2026.
