From the above discussions we can conclude that toll tax is a fee which is used
for the use of a newly constructed facility to recoup the total capital outlay.
The private organization builds, operates and then transfers the facility after
a projected period of time.
The Electronic Toll Collection (ETC) system is the most efficient method of toll
collection with minimum delays.
But due to its high installation cost it’s not that prevalent in India.
We can find the optimum number of tollbooths by applying queueing theory to
ascertain the delays in both queueing and merging areas.
The optimum number of tollbooths should minimize the overall delay time.
The toll plaza design should be done in accordance with the Indian Standard
Codes available.
Toll prices are set in a way that they attract maximum number of users and the
agency should be able to recover the cost within specified period of time.
