The synthesis will be of interest to officials of toll authorities, traffic engineers, law enforcement officials, financial personnel, and others responsible for the design and operation of toll facilities. The technology, including examples of applications of several current Electronic Toll and Traffic Management (ETTM) systems, is described in this synthesis. Because the technology is in the early stages of implementation, there is little experience with the 'TM' (traffic management) aspects of ETTM; however, the potential for traffic management systems is discussed. Various electronic toll collection (ETC) and automatic vehicle identification (AVI) systems, their characteristics, advantages/disadvantages, payment options, and performance experience are described. The technology is changing rapidly, and the synthesis presents a 'snapshot' of the industry at the time of its preparation.
