DRAMATIC EVENTS IN TOLLING

TransCore, the largest tolling system integrator, is buying Amtech, the largest toll systems manufacturer, in the most dramatic consolidation in a decade. It puts together in TransCore the largest toll systems company in the world. Regular battery-powered toll transponders are already being used to pay for McDonald's hamburgers and other items in drive-through lanes in southern California. In Texas, Amtech has been active promoting the use of toll transponders for parking payment and access to gated communities and employee parking lots.
