Toll Plazas

Toll plazas are controlled points on roads or highways where vehicles pay a fee—called a toll—often used to fund road maintenance and infrastructure. They typically feature collection booths or electronic systems, like toll tags or automatic cameras, to process payments efficiently. When approaching a toll plaza, drivers either stop to pay manually or pass through an electronic system that deducts the fee automatically. These systems help ensure smooth traffic flow while generating revenue for road upkeep. Toll plazas are common on busy routes, especially where roads pass through different jurisdictions or require additional funding for large infrastructure projects.
