Bosch and IDFC FIRST Bank Launch Barrier-less Tolling System in Delhi
The Multi-Lane Free Flow (MLFF) tolling system on Delhi's Urban Extension Road-II has processed over 3.04 million vehicle transactions since launch, enabling barrier-less tolling that allows vehicles to pass without stopping. Developed by Bosch Mobility Platform and Solutions in partnership with IDFC FIRST Bank, the system averages 50,000 vehicles daily, reducing congestion, saving approximately 152,129 litres of fuel, and cutting 395.5 tonnes of CO2 emissions. It integrates technologies like ANPR, RFID FASTag, radar, and LiDAR for real-time toll processing, enhancing traffic flow and travel efficiency.
