Toll when collected
electronically in an attempt to eliminate the delay on toll roads is
called electronic toll collection (ETC). Electronic toll collection
debits the accounts of the owners of the registered cars without
stopping. ETC alerts the system for the cars that have not been
registered. Each car is equipped with a transponder. The
transponder’s personalized signal would be picked when the car
passes through an intersection. The information is passed on to the
central computer and they would be charged accordingly. Types of
electronic toll collection are single lane electronic toll collection
and multi lane free flow electronic toll collection. Single lane
system enables reduction in traffic congestion and increase in
traffic throughput. Multi lane system helps achieve maximum
throughput on the highway, keeps the traffic flowing and helps reduce
the traffic congestion.
Free flow of
traffic, reduction in traffic congestion, elimination of the physical
interaction with the system are some of the key drivers of the
electronic toll collection. Electronic toll system is likely to fail
in case of rain, dirt, fog, or moisture on tag. Furthermore, the tags
can easily be duplicated. Complexity of the tag circuitry is raising
the manufacturing cost which is holding back the growth of ETC
market. ETC has brought about opportunities for revenue generation,
increased safety, better environment, public transport improvement
among others.
North America holds
the largest market share of the electronic toll collection. The U.S.
and Canada being the key implementers of the ETC. Europe follows
North America, where France, Italy, Spain, Portugal are prominent
regions wherein ETC is implemented on a large scale. In Asia-Pacific,
China, South Korea and Japan are steadily implementing the ETC. Major
players in the market include, C-S Communication & Systems,
G.E.A, Caseta Technologies, Inc., international road dynamics,
Transcore Holdings, Inc , Atlantia SpA, Inc., Q-FREE ASA, SAIC, Inc ,
International Road Dynamics, Perceptics LLC, Kapsch TrafficCom AG,
Sirit, Inc., TRMI Systems Integration, Transtoll, among others.
