Toll Section Arrives on Shu-Burylbaital Route, Here's What You Need to Know
Starting May 13, Kazakhstan will introduce another toll section of the road along the route from Shu to Burylbaital. This development primarily impacts commercial transport, as private vehicles will continue to use the route for free.
If you'd rather dodge the toll, there's an alternative route available for you: take the road from Shu to Kainar, then Kenen, Karaabastau, Kanshengel, Aksuiek, and finish at Burylbaital.
The toll varies based on your vehicle type and is calculated using the MPR (3,932 tenge in 2025):
- For buses with up to 16 seats and trucks up to 2.5 tons, expect to pay either:1,032 tenge (prepaid)1,213 tenge (postpaid)
- For buses with up to 32 seats and trucks up to 5.5 tons, you'll be charged:2,083 tenge (prepaid)2,446 tenge (postpaid)
- For buses with more than 32 seats and truck-tractors up to 10 tons, prepare for:3,115 tenge (prepaid)3,659 tenge (postpaid)
- Trucks within the 10 to 15 tons range:4,156 tenge (prepaid)4,892 tenge (postpaid)
- Vehicles exceeding 15 tons, tractors, and vehicles with trailers:5,188 tenge (prepaid)6,105 tenge (postpaid)
Subscription plans catering to regular users are also available, ranging from 1 to 5 MPR per month or 12 to 60 MPR per year, based on your vehicle type.
Interestingly, the section of the republican automobile road between Balhash and Burylbaital will be toll-free for the next 20 years.
In 2025, "KazAvtoZhol" aims to collect 100 billion tenge from toll roads, as per a statement made by the chairman of the "KazAvtoZhol" board, Darhan Imanashev. Funds collected will primarily be used for operational expenses, including snow removal, repairs, maintenance of lighting, and replacement of road signs, as well as capitalization, particularly for the acquisition of specialized road equipment.
