Free Flow ETC System
Our free-flow solutions substantially increase the traffic flow, reduce congestion and improve road user comfort. With a trouble-free implementation based on proven technology and extensive experience.
Electronic Toll Collection, often referred to as Electronic Road Pricing (ERP), is a solution for automated toll collection on roads, bridges, and tunnels. It allows the collection of tolls without the need to stop the vehicle, slow down or use a specific lane. The Multi Lane Free Flow (MLFF) allows drivers to use tolled infrastructure seamlessly and efficiently. ETC solutions use a combination of technologies such as global navigation satellite systems (GNSS), automatic number plate recognition (ANPR), microwave (DSRC) or radio (RFID) communication, to identify vehicles and deduct tolls by the payment method chosen by the road user.
The successful implementation of ETC requires careful planning, public consultation, and collaboration between government authorities, transportation agencies, and stakeholders. When designed and executed effectively, ETC is a valuable tool for creating more efficient, sustainable, and liveable environments.
Our free-flow electronic toll collection solution for concessionaires is based on the following pillars:
• Automatic detection and identification of vehicles
• Unmanned operation, even at high speeds
• Low error rates of incorrect or missed toll payments
• Use of multiple technologies and their combination
• Can be installed on existing infrastructure
• Runs in parallel with the existing tolling solution with a gradual transition to full free-flow tolling
• Possibility to extend the satellite-based ETC solution or its parts (e.g. OBU) to collect tolls on other national or urban toll roads
• Allow interoperability with other free-flow ETC solutions
Preffered Combination of Technologies:
GNSS tolling, or Global Navigation Satellite System tolling, is a technology that utilises satellite positioning to collect tolls from vehicles based on their geographic location. It enables precise, automated toll collection by accurately determining a vehicle’s position and calculating toll charges accordingly. This solution does not require the construction of toll gantries or toll plazas, so saves on time, costs and resources associated with a non- satellite-based tolling system.
ANPR (Automatic Number Plate Recognition) interacts with all models of vehicles, ranging from motorbikes to heavy goods vehicles. This makes it a suitable solution for a wide range of environments, including busy urban freeways, country-spanning highways, high-density expressways and car parks.
Our solutions offer benefits such as:
Environmental Sustainability: Our systems are designed to reduce emissions by optimizing traffic flow, thus contributing to cleaner air and a healthier environment.
Efficiency and Safety: By leveraging real-time data and advanced analytics, we aim to reduce traffic congestion, improve road safety, and enhance the overall travel experience.
Economic Growth: Efficient traffic management can lead to significant economic benefits by saving time and reducing costs associated with transportation.
