ABSTRACT
The toll collection system currently used in Zimbabwe is an open system whereby toll levies are collected manually by toll collectors at various tollgates across the country. This system has negative effects on both the drivers and passengers as it causes time delays and traffic congestion at tollgates especially during public holidays where traffic volumes are enormous as people will be travelling. The Tollgate Collection System using RFID Technology project will eliminate hard cash transactions by making the payment process electronic. This will also reduce time delays at tollgates and bring great conveniences to drivers as they do not have to unnecessarily carry hard cash to pay their toll levies. The system will also reduce the levels of fraud from toll collectors which will in most cases will bring great accountability for each and every toll collection made boosting the Government‟s revenues to be used for road construction and renovations. This project also enhances vehicle tag security in the sense that if a stolen vehicle tag approaches the tollgate the RFID reader of system will interact with this tag and a buzzer alarm will sound thereby alerting the police authorities at the tollgate. This project was effectively done and the results that were obtained indicated that this system can be implemented in real time at current tollgate bringing a broader overview of toll collection that will bring great conveniences to both toll collectors and the drivers of vehicles.
