Toll Plaza

A toll plaza is a designated area on a roadway where drivers stop to pay a fee, known as a toll, for using that particular stretch of road, bridge, or tunnel. The collected toll funds help maintain and upgrade transportation infrastructure. Toll plazas typically have multiple lanes, with some equipped with electronic payment systems to allow quick, cashless transactions. When paying manually, drivers stop to pay a cashier or use a billing machine. The goal of a toll plaza is to manage traffic flow efficiently while generating revenue for road upkeep and development.
