The article presents the verification of a developed method of rationalising the process of the operation of a manual toll collection (MTC) system on the basis of current operation tests. The review of the state of art and research on the operation of the manual toll collection system prompted the authors to develop their own method of rationalising the operation process of the manual toll collection system. The method enabled the development of an original application facilitating the process of manual toll collection system. The application makes it possible to determine the key indicator—the readiness index for the employed operation strategy of the analysed toll collection station and the readiness index for the employed operation strategy of the analysed group of toll collection stations. Additionally, the application enables an analysis of the capacity and the service assessment by motorway users. The use of the software system together with the developed method was implemented on a real toll plaza. This action allowed for the analysis and implementation of an adequate MTC service strategy. The results of the research and analysis are presented in the summary and conclusions.

The Impact

<p><strong>Resumo: </strong>Este trabalho tem por objetivo avaliar o impacto da composição do tráfego e das condições de cobrança na capacidade de praças de pedágio. As variações das condições de cobrança de pedágio avaliadas neste estudo incluem reduções nos tempos de atendimento nas cabines manuais, bem como os impactos decorrentes da adoção, e crescente adesão, dos usuários à cobrança eletrônica de pedágio. As informações sobre tempos de atendimento utilizados no estudo correspondem a dados reais coletados em praças de pedágio do estado do Rio Grande do Sul. As análises foram realizadas a partir da simulação de uma praça de pedágio através do software de microssimulação VISSIM. Os resultados evidenciaram e quantificaram o aumento de capacidade das praças associado ao treinamento de arrecadadores e à adoção de tarifas que facilitam o troco. Neste estudo melhorias associadas a estas medidas corresponderam a um aumento de até 19% na capacidade da praça. Melhorias bem mais significativas de desempenho, entretanto, podem ser atingidas com o aumento da adesão dos usuários ao sistema de cobrança eletrônica de pedágio.</p><p><strong>Abstract: </strong>This study aims to assess the impact of the composition of traffic and charging conditions on the capacity of toll plazas. The toll charging conditions evaluated in this study include the reductions in service times at manual toll booths, the introduction of electronic toll collection and the increase in electronic collection compliance rates. Service times adopted in this study correspond to data collected at toll plazas of the state of Rio Grande do Sul. Analyses presented in this paper are based on toll plaza simulations through the microsimulation software VISSIM. The simulation outcomes evidenced and quantified the capacity increase associated with collectors training and the adoption of fares that simplified the change. In this study, improvements associated with these measures corresponded to an increase of up to 19% of the plaza capacity. More significant improvements in performance, however, can be achieved by increasing the compliance of the electronic toll collection system.</p>

Typical methods for collecting tolls are manual collection, automatic toll collection via coin machines and Electronic Toll collection System. The existing toll collection system all over India is operated manually. A toll system is the place where toll is paid for passage of a vehicle from the toll plaza. In the existing toll collection system there are limitations like mismanagement of time, long queue for the payment. The aim of the project is to implement toll collection system using RFID technology to overcome demerits of existing toll system. This paper mainly focused on how the electronic toll collection system reduces manual work load using RFID technology. Ultimately, this system reduces environment pollution due to the burning of fuel as well as reduces the waiting time of users in toll queue. User can access the toll collection system webpage and may perform their money transaction from any location. Their transaction will reflect in the centralized database. Due to the use of online transaction, users do not need to carry cash with them and this leads to reduction of human error occurring at the toll booths. Also the police admin can add the theft car details and this tollgate system will block the vehicles which are added by police admin. The cloud data will gets encrypted and decrypted using AES algorithm.

A large number of toll road projects with a barrier toll collection system are currently being implemented in Russia. Therefore, it seems relevant to study the toll plaza as an element of the transport infrastructure. Insuffi cient attention to the issues of assessing current and predicted intensity on TPscan cause regular traffi c congestions on toll roads. The goal of this study is to build a simulation model that allows to evaluate the capacity of the toll collection point during the operation of the toll road at different traffi c fl ow rates, taking into account the ratio of different types of vehicles and user behavior errors. Visual observation materials are used, the research method is discrete-event simulation of PVP using AnyLogic software, processing of the results is performed in the statistical package R. The toll point (TP) the Western High-Speed Diameter toll road in St. Petersburg, Russia was considered as a case for the study.As a result was build simulation model of TP was developed, taking into account the traffi c specifi cs and user behavior errors. Conducted experiments established the peak traffi c intensities, when traffi c congestion begins to form at the TP, with different ratios of electronic toll collection usage. During the analysis, few cases of service time distribution were considered — from low to high traffi c intensities. Main conclusions of the study: -for the low intensity case, the results of the analysis showed the splitting of the total distribution of the service time into two distributions for different operating modes of toll lanes, — for high intensity, the infl uence of user behavior on service time distribution was revealed, — for each case, the parameters of the gamma laws of service time distribution were determined, — in case of insuffi cient throughput capacity, the TP stops working effi ciently, and service time distribution increases, regardless of the type of payment. Estimated peak hours of TP operation, when there is a potential for congestion at the TP were defi ned. Possible ways of further increase thetoll collection system throughput capacity for the TP were indicated.

Security is not the absence of danger but the presence of Technology. Vehicle robbery is trending upwards so, This proposed work aimed to design and develop a anti-theft system that involves Global Positioning System (GPS) and Global System for Mobile Communication (GSM) technology in order to provide vehicle security. At the implementation of this system, when the vehicle is found to be robbed, the client receives a alert message along with the current location of the vehicle. So as the client can interact with the system by sending a stop message in order to stop the vehicle. Our next objective is to provide automated toll collection system which intern aid to achieve efficacious time utilization and simultaneous prevents traffic caused due to long queue at toll plaza using Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology. There by theft vehicles can also be detected using the concept of online toll payment. According to the parking law in India if the rules are violated we observe Regional Transport Office(RTO) lifts and takes off illegally parked vehicles. In order to overcome this, have included the concept where client receives the alert message as well as the current location. Vehicle loses power while driving so the self powering system is included which is beneficial to run further application like AC, radio etc... using Piezo electric plates.

This papaer entitled electronic toll collection system based on Radio Frequncy Identification System explained in detail based on current issue at toll collection system. There are some obstacles faced every day where the users spent their valuable time in queue at tollgate due to traffic congestion as well as using traditional manual method in most existing toll ETC system to collect toll from road users. Besides that, the barrier design where each vehicle stop waiting until barrier lift which consider source of time delay. To tackle stated problems, an electronic toll collection system is proposed which based on RFID technology. The integrated system consists of two main sections, electronic sides where all input data received from while database management office is where all necessary information stored. To compare the current ETC system, in this research elaborated internet of things where all data transmit through cloud and then to the main office in real time. Not only that, there is some enhancement based on barrier design where, gate is remained open for all vehicles with sufficient tags without requiring to stop to eliminate time delay.By check system throughput compare to existing toll systems, various tests have been carried out in different method where proposed system throughput much higher percentage the current system.

To vanquish above issues, it becomes critical to quicken the method near toll court. From now on to overcome the issues saw toll court RFID based toll gathering structure is used. The planning time required by RFID Toll Collection System is extensively not exactly but manually toll amassing structure. Manually toll gathering structure in like manner prompts human botches which may incite erroneous toll aggregation. We furthermore every now and again find the opportunity to hear that the amount of endeavor at murder cases is extending well ordered. There may even be a loss of life. It’s difficult to get the liable party in endeavor at homicide cases. It is seen that in case of stolen vehicle it is incredibly difficult to pursue the vehicle. It is critical to control all these above issues. Thusly, systems similarly has additional function of distinguishing the stolen vehicles and disaster cases that are enlisted. It is seen that over-troubling the vehicles may incite accident and besides hurt the boulevards. This issue is adds address for system by measuring items passing on vehicle and blame them for excess toll if it is over-trouble so they won't over-load again. Structure moreover makes portion system straightforward by making all trade. An assessment in field of usage of RFID structure is developing giant scale.
