Toll Plaza Operations with Advanced Weighing Solutions
Toll plazas are constantly bustling with a wide variety of vehicles passing through. Effectively managing heavy traffic, identifying vehicles, collecting tolls, and weighing vehicles all require advanced automated systems.
Toll Management Systems
Toll management systems streamline toll plaza operations by incorporating technologies like Radio Frequency Identification (RFID), Weigh-in-Motion (WIM), and Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR). These systems help generate valuable reports on traffic flow, vehicle weights, and toll revenue.
Toll management systems are essential for monitoring and managing vehicle weights, preventing overloading, ensuring accurate toll fees based on weight, maintaining compliance with transport regulations, and enhancing road safety.
Truck Weigh-in-Motion (TWIM)
Truck Weigh-in-Motion (TWIM) systems form the core of efficient toll plaza management, providing real-time, accurate measurements of moving vehicles with minimal traffic disruption. TWIM sensors (load cells) accurately capture both axle and total vehicle weight, while the toll management system processes this data for real-time insights.
Vehicles are classified according to weight and dimensions, enabling toll plazas to detect overloading and apply the appropriate toll fee and penalties. Automated systems like TWIM reduce manual data entry errors, preserve data accuracy, and handle up to 180 vehicles per hour.
Medium Speed Weigh-in-Motion (MSWIM)
Medium Speed Weigh-in-Motion (MSWIM) weighbridges are designed to weigh vehicles traveling at speeds between 15 and 60 km/h. Equipped with multiple load cells, MSWIM ensures precise weight measurement. Integrated with toll plaza equipment such as control barriers, traffic lights, and CCTV cameras, MSWIM boosts operational productivity and efficiency.
Its low installation and maintenance costs, combined with reduced power requirements, make MSWIM an ideal solution for toll plazas looking to improve vehicle throughput while minimizing operational expenses.
Advanced Toll Management Systems (ATMS)
Advanced Toll Management Systems (ATMS) further enhance toll plaza efficiency through digital and communication technologies. Using RFID tags or transmitters, ATMS collects tolls seamlessly, minimizing traffic interruption. High-definition cameras provide clear vehicle identification, while ANPR (Automatic Number Plate Recognition) helps prevent toll fraud.
Toll management systems have become a crucial part of transportation infrastructure, allowing toll plazas to accelerate operations, improve vehicle safety, and calculate exact vehicle weight loads—all while boosting revenue.
