Tolling Industry Statistics

Tolling is no longer a niche revenue stream but the fastest way to measure how infrastructure funding, technology, and traffic management are converging, with USD 200 billion in global investment from 2020 to 2025 and ETC now reaching 85% of toll lanes by 2023. Follow the scale jump from 5,000 U.S. tolled lane miles to China’s 160,000 km expressways and the shift to all electronic operations, where daily flows can swing from 500,000 vehicles at Delhi’s busiest toll plaza to a 2% U.S. evasion rate after ETC rollout.
