Tolling > Multi Lane Free Flow

Multi Lane Free Flow

Intelligent gantries detect, identify and classify vehicles travelling at highway speed without barriers, toll lanes or traffic disruption.

Free to travel nonstop

Movyon’s Multi Lane Free Flow solution allows vehicles to pass through tolling points without stopping, slowing down or entering dedicated toll lanes.

Intelligent gantries equipped with advanced detection, vehicle classification, Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) and On-Board Unit communication technologies capture all the information required to identify each vehicle in transit.

The software correlates data from the different subsystems, associates every event with the correct vehicle and sends the resulting transaction to the central platform, where the applicable toll is calculated automatically.

The result is a fully digital toll collection process that improves traffic flow while ensuring high levels of accuracy and operational control.

Traditional toll plazas require vehicles to slow down, stop or merge into dedicated lanes to complete payment. Multi-Lane Free Flow fundamentally changes this model by enabling toll collection while vehicles continue travelling at normal speed.

By eliminating stops, acceleration, braking and lane changes around tolling points, the system improves traffic flow, enhances road safety and helps reduce fuel consumption and vehicle emissions.

Each gantry integrates multiple roadside technologies, coordinated by Movyon’s software platform:

Laser-based vehicle classification system:
To identify the size and shape of the vehicle.
Side laser scanner:
To achieve axle-based classification.

Side-view cameras for manual axle count verification.
Cameras for rear and front license plate reading.
Rear and front contextual color cameras.
Tracking camera to optimize event correlation process.
Illumination setup to capture perimeter in low light conditions.

DSRC Antenna:
5.8 GHz DSRC Communication, CEN EN15509 or ETSI ES 600274-1.
RFID antenna and radar system:
ISO/IEC 18000-63 @860 MHz.

Combining multiple data sources allows the system to manage even complex traffic scenarios while maintaining high levels of identification and classification accuracy.

Designed for continuous operation

Movyon’s Multi Lane Free Flow gantries feature a compact, modular and robust design that simplifies installation, maintenance and future upgrades.

The architecture minimizes the number of roadside devices while allowing individual components to be serviced or replaced without affecting the availability of the entire system. Power distribution can be managed through dedicated protected cabinets, while the overall structure is engineered for long-term durability and reliable protection of installed equipment. These features simplify maintenance activities and help operators reduce lifecycle costs.

The platform as the control centre

The central platform provides operators with complete visibility over gantry performance, system status and toll transactions. Built-in monitoring, diagnostics and reporting tools enable rapid identification of anomalies and support proactive maintenance activities. Open interfaces also allow seamless integration with existing back-office applications and third-party platforms.

As a result, operators can monitor not only individual toll transactions but also overall system performance, including data quality, equipment availability, service continuity and post-processing activities.

Movyon integrates intelligent gantries, roadside detection technologies and central software platforms to deliver reliable, scalable and fully interoperable Free Flow tolling systems.

Vehicles continue travelling at normal speed without stopping or entering dedicated toll lanes.

Reduced congestion helps lower fuel consumption and vehicle emissions.

Fewer braking events, accelerations and lane changes reduce potential conflict points near tolling locations.

Electronic toll collection eliminates cash handling and manual payment operations.

Advanced event correlation and multi-sensor verification improve transaction accuracy and help safeguard toll revenues.

Integrated monitoring, diagnostics and reporting provide full control over system performance.

The modular architecture minimizes service interruptions and facilitates maintenance activities.
