Covid-19 Analysis


The pandemic had restricted the growth of several manufacturing verticals and production units. Especially automotive, construction, transportation, and semiconductor industries were affected by the pandemic severely. The manufacturing units were shut down and therefore the disruption in the supply and chain was also intensified throughout the pandemic. Such factors have significantly affected the overall growth of the Electronic Toll Collection industry. Moreover, the raw materials for the electronic equipment such as RFID chips, controllers, processors, cameras, and transponders were shipped from the countries like China, and the US to manufacturing units across the globe. Since there has been a huge restriction for movement across the globe and logistics restrictions at the international borders, the raw materials were not transported to the manufacturing companies which affected the manufacturing processes as well. Therefore, the Electronic Toll Collection Industry value has been significantly affected by the widespread COVID-19.


Electronic Toll Collection Market Trends



  • Rising Demand For Minimizing Traffic Congestion And Fuel Consumption At Toll Stations


Traditional toll collection systems used to handle most transactions in cash mode of payments, which required much more time to complete the transaction. Meanwhile, the vehicle drivers needed to keep their engines running, thereby increasing the pollution levels in the toll plaza area. Additionally, the transaction time increased the traffic congestion in the lane, leading to increased fuel consumption at the toll station, resulting in higher emission levels due to the idling fuel wastage. This exposed the toll collection staff to severe airborne diseases and excessive lifetime cancer risks (ELCR). To minimize the risk and exposure to harmful emissions, including hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide, and carbon dioxide, from automotive vehicles, electronic toll collection (ETC) systems have proven to be beneficial and maximize the throughput. By adopting an ETC system, the toll agencies can automate the toll collection process, which in turn enhances the speed, accuracy, and lowers the operational costs & revenue leakages, especially in the toll plazas accepting payments in cash, which is driving the growth of the market.


Electronic Toll Collection Market Segment Insights:


Electronic Toll Collection Technology Insights


Based on technology, the Electronic Toll Collection Market is segmented into automatic vehicle identification (AVI), automated vehicle classification (AVC), violation enforcement system (VES), and toll transaction processing system. Toll Transaction Processing System is expected to hold a largest market share in electronic toll collection market. A toll transaction processing system charges a toll to users without requiring any action or stopping. The system debits the amount from the account of the registered car owners or identifies the license plate for later billing without requiring vehicles to stop. It performs an electronic monetary transaction between a vehicle passing through a toll plaza and the toll collection agency. It improves the speed and efficiency of traffic flow and saves the driver’s time. This system enables transactions to be performed while vehicles travel at near-highway speed, allowing seamless travel by the road users along national highways.


Electronic Toll Collection Means of Collection Insights


Based on means of collection, the Electronic Toll Collection Market is segmented into prepaid and postpaid. The postpaid segment accounted for the larger market share in 2021. However, prepaid segment is projected to exhibit a CAGR of 8.6%. A prepaid system is more widely preferred, as low amounts of most tolls make a follow-up of uncollected debts expensive.

Electronic Toll Collection Application Insights


Based on application, the Electronic Toll Collection Market is segmented into roads, bridges, tunnels, and ferries. Roads segment is expected to hold a largest market share. Roads tolls save time and reduce energy consumption by reducing stop-and-go traffic associated with vehicles approaching toll plazas, parking to pay tolls, and speeding up, rejoining the normal traffic flow. These systems have the capacity to move five times as many vehicles as do conventional toll lanes. When the vehicle passes a roadside toll reader device, a radio signal from the reader triggers the transponder, which transmits back an identifying number that registers the vehicle's use of the road, and an electronic payment system charges the user the toll.


Electronic Toll Collection Regional Insights


The Electronic Toll Collection market in North America is likely to hold the highest revenue share of 38.0% in 2021 and it is projected to increase at a significant growth rate in the future. The United States and Canada have the most autos per person in North America, which is one of the most critical factors propelling the electronic toll collection market ahead. Furthermore, both countries have the world's largest interstate and state road networks, with innovative toll collection systems deployed in numerous locations and other toll installation projects for high-traffic parts underway. Furthermore, advancements such as real-time vehicle tracking and monitoring via GPS/GNSS, as well as the deployment of RFID sensors in developing countries such as Japan, China, and India, are propelling the electronic toll collection industry forward.
