NEXCO Central's electronic toll collection system failed in the early hours of April 6, 2025, leaving 106 toll booths unusable for 38 hours across 17 routes, including those leading to Tokyo. The company raised the barriers and enabled a web form for deferred payment. About 960,000 vehicles passed through those toll booths and 3.8% requested to pay. The failure originated in a software update and meant 1.2 billion yen went uncollected.
