The better alternative to large scale road charging

Enhance your road charging revenue to fund transportation infrastructure without the burden of building expensive gantries.

Best Value For Technology Investment

With increasing demands on road infrastructure and dwindling fuel taxes from fuel-efficient vehicles (electric and hybrid vehicles), governments are now investing in road charging programs. The challenge has always been in creating a sustainable but fair system for collecting revenues and implementing a system quickly and economically, while not adding to traffic congestion during peak periods.

As a leader in secure, scalable and compliant road usage charging technology, IMS has established a sustainable, accurate and cost-effective road charging program that offers governments, partners and drivers confidence in exploring alternative revenue opportunities to help fund transportation infrastructure projects.

More experience collaborating with governments on road usage charge

Road usage charge pilot projects are small-scale, short-term studies that help decision-makers learn whether and how a concept might work in that specific state. The pilot process allows the State’s Transportation Commission and lawmakers to improve upon the design or policies before potentially launching a larger-scale project.
