Influence of Toll Collection Method on Motorways on Traffic Safety and Efficiency

The paper presents the results of the effectiveness analysis for various forms of toll collection on motorway gates and their impact on safety and efficiency of traffic. The results from field tests that were performed on the A1 motorway in Rusocin were used for the analysis. The research included the analysis of the video image of driver behaviour on the way to the toll booths and at toll booths. The PTV VISSIM tool was used to analyse the safety and efficiency of the traffic (microsimulation models of the Rusocin Toll Collection Plaza reflecting various forms of payment). The analysis of speed changes, delays, vehicle queues and driver service time has been made, including the method of toll collection (manual, automatic, hybrid). The analysis of traffic safety was carried out using surrogate measures used in the theory of traffic conflicts, taking into account the trajectory of vehicles movement.
