Toll Management System© uses various technologies that allows the manual in-lane toll collection process to be automated in such a way that customers do not have to stop and pay cash at a toll booth. With TMS, an actual toll plaza is not even a requirement to collect tolls. The TMS equipment can be mounted on overhead gantries and/or in the pavement, which allows vehicles to be charged while they proceed at highway speeds.

For a TMS implementation to be effective, reliable and achieve maximum throughput and customer acceptance, three major in-lane/roadway components are required:
•    Automatic Vehicle Identification (AVI)uses a radio Frequency (RFID) device located in the vehicle to uniquely identify the vehicle to the toll equipment.
•    Automatic Vehicle Classification (AVC)uses various sensors in and around the lane to determine the type of vehicle so that the proper toll can be charged.
•    Video Enforcement Systems (VES)capture images of the license plates of vehicles that use the facility without a valid tag so that the owners can be identified and notified that a toll is due. All of these systems are tied together by what is commonly referred to as a lane controller.

Key Features:-
•    Create an easy to operate and maintain system
•    Increase process speed: all available information had to be automatically verified, aggregated and posted in the system, with minimum human intervention
•    All data is automatically consolidated and verified. Email notifications are sent to system operators in case errors or inconsistencies are detected. System operators can then access the system directly from the email links and immediately correct wrong data.
•    Hot Card Filtering for fraud detection filtering.
•    Card Issue Centers can be located anywhere.
