Turnpike Toll Plaza

A Turnpike Toll Plaza is a designated area on a toll road where drivers stop to pay a fee for using the highway. It typically features multiple lanes for vehicles and some form of payment system, such as cash, electronic toll collection, or card readers. The toll collected helps maintain and operate the roadway. Modern plazas often use technology like cameras and sensors to process electronic payments quickly, reducing congestion. Overall, it’s a controlled point where travelers contribute to the upkeep of the highway while continuing their journey once payment is completed.
