Brazilian highway concessionaire Renovias has rolled out the first free-flow tolling system in Sao Paulo, Brazil, enabling vehicles to travel at constant speeds along the freeway and enjoy a reduction in travel times.
729 Schneider Electric installed its SmartMobility free-flow toll system, designed to handle electronic toll collection without vehicles having to stop in order to make toll payment. The system also provides vehicle detection via its simultaneous double tag reading system and front and rear licence plate reading system. The back office system for manual and automatic image recognition will also optimise toll management and operation.
The system was opened to the public following successful full scale testing during the previous weeks. Test results showed reading accuracy levels over 99.97 per cent.
