Those drivers over the age of 65 or with reduced mobility and who wish to receive a discount must prove their status (show their ID, Driving License or other documentation certifying their status) to a fee collector located in a manual-payment lane, who will validate their tag. A discount of 5% on the base fee will be applied at the time of transit.

4.DISCOUNT FOR CONTINUITY WITH THE AUTOPISTA DEL SOL MOTORWAY

A discount of 5% on the base fee will be applied to those users in continuity with (continuing a journey on) other concessionary sections of the same primary road network. To this end, users in continuity are those who use a toll section of the primary road network closest to the motorway, i.e. the Málaga-Marbella section of the Autopista del Sol motorway (the toll station at Calahonda, Mijas) within a 12-hour period.

The discount is only applied to the toll fee corresponding to the use of the AP-46, being applied to outbound and inbound journeys.
