How is a Transaction File Created

• Generation of a Toll Transaction File in a lane– Vehicle enters the lane– The toll collector visually classifies the vehicle and selects the

appropriate toll category– The toll system displays the category selected by the toll collector on

the UFD– The toll system displays the required toll fare on the UFD– When the amount tendered is equal to or greater than the toll fare, the

toll system : Generates a receipt – The system opens the gate– When the vehicle clears the gate, the gate is closed, the traffic light is

set to red & the UFD display is cleared– As the vehicle exits the toll lane, the vehicle is classified by the AVC

system
