Autotoll has been providing Electronic Toll Collection (ETC) services for Hong Kong since 1998. The ETC System manages over 50 toll lanes, including all major toll roads and tunnels in Hong Kong. By replacing old manual procedures with automated solutions, when a vehicle equipped with the ETC system transponder, passes through a toll booth, the transponder communicates instantaneously with the device installed adjacent to the toll booth to pay the toll by deducting it from a pre-paid account. All expenses are charged accurately to a pre-paid account with full transaction records available for subscribers. As of 2021, we are now serving over 360,000 vehicles, around 45% of licensed vehicles.
Autotoll is committed to develop relevant smart solutions to in line with the Government’s initiatives’ on Smart City development. Our smart solution - Free-flow Tolling System is the one with most rapid growth in the aspect of Smart Mobility.
The Free-flow Tolling System is a technology-based solution, using the Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) to detect and read the tag or sensor that installed in the vehicle; and Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) to detect the Vehicle Registration Marks of the vehicle. Vehicle will not need to stop at the toll booth for paying the tunnel tolls manually and it helps to improve the smooth driving experience.
