- Automatic Vehicle Classification (AVC): This system automatically classifies vehicles based on their size, number of axles, or other characteristics. This ensures that the correct toll amount is charged.
- Electronic Toll Collection (ETC): This system allows drivers to pay tolls electronically using a transponder mounted on their windshield. ETC lanes typically allow for faster processing times than cash lanes.
- Weigh In Motion (WIM) and Static Weighbridge: These systems can weigh vehicles in motion or while they are stopped. This helps to ensure that overweight vehicles are not damaging roads and bridges, and that they are paying the appropriate tolls.
- Toll Transactions Remote Monitoring (TTRM): This system allows for the remote monitoring of toll transactions in real time. This can help to identify and prevent fraud.
- User-Friendly Graphical User Interface (GUI): The GUI should be easy for toll booth operators to use, even if they are not familiar with computers.
- Open and Scalable Architecture: The system should be able to integrate with other systems, such as payment gateways and central clearinghouses. It should also be scalable to accommodate future growth.
- Real-time monitoring and control: This allows for central oversight of toll operations, enabling quick identification and resolution of any issues.
- Multiple Payment Modes: The system should accept cash, electronic toll collection tags, credit cards, and other forms of payment.
- Highly customizable: The system should be customizable to meet the specific needs of the toll operator.
- Auditability: The system should be able to generate detailed records of all toll transactions for auditing purposes.
- Integration with external entities: The system should be able to integrate with other relevant systems, such as weighbridges and enforcement cameras.
