    (2018-06-21T10:05:27Z) Santhosh, N E; Skanda Venkatesh, A; Yogesh, B
    Toll plazas have become means for collecting revenue in order to build network of roadways which in turn improve safety, comfort, reduce average travel time and improve the capacity of roads  The study of queuing is important to find out new design methods in arranging the toll plazas and means of operating the toll plazas which in turn improve the service rate at the toll booth and the capacity of the tollbooth otherwise would have created long queues.  In the present study a continuous attempt has been made in understanding how the toll booth works, which is being designed on queuing theory.  The study involves collecting the geometric attributes of the toll plaza, the arrival pattern of vehicles to the queuing area, the service provided by the system.
