Road transport has become increasingly important in the modern road network and the traditional manual toll system has become obsolete due to its drawbacks. By using an automated toll collection system, the driver of the vehicles does not have to stop at a window or toll and waste time waiting in a long line to pay their toll. This reduces fuel consumption, reduces road congestion, increases road safety and the traveler is pleased. The electronic toll collection system (ETC) is basically designed for uninterrupted toll collection, which has become an important part of the intelligent transport system. This article introduces the concept of automated ETC using the ZigBee transceiver instead of RFID technology. The range of communication increases comparatively. Automated ZigBee ETC can eliminate manual toll collection, require minimum employee, and therefore reduce operating cost.
