Free Flow Systems

Gantry based free flow toll systems comprise overhead mounted sensors, cameras and communications devices. Traffic flows freely in multiple lanes under the gantry. These solutions tend to be used more and more where a large amount of vehicles have to be tolled on certain few toll points.

• Vehicle Classification
• Vehicle Enforcement via Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR)or Electronic License Plate Reading
• Communication with In-Vehicle Units
• Matching of Class, Communication, and ANPR Information to provide COURT PROOF evidence of a violation event. 

Further requirements for these systems include:

• No interference with traffic.
• Compliance to legal requirements, particularly privacy.
• Stop-and-Go Traffic as well as Vehicle Speed up to 300 km/h.
• Reliability under all weather conditions.
• No risk to health, traffic safety, or environment.
• Cost effective
