4984 Kapsch TrafficCom subsidiary Kapsch TrafficCom Australia is to deliver the roadside tolling system for the Toowoomba Second Range Crossing (TSRC) Project in Queensland, Australia.

The contract, awarded by the State of Queensland, comprises supply and operation for 10 years of the roadside system for TSRC and is valued at around US$6.6 million (€6 million).

Kapsch will deliver its latest tolling technology based on the company’s single gantry multi-lane free-flow platform and next-generation vision technology for both vehicle detection and classification and automatic number plate recognition, along with a comprehensive 10-year services agreement for its operation.

TSRC will be a bypass road to the north of Toowoomba, approximately 41 km long, and will connect the Warrego Highway from Helidon in the east, to Charlton (west of Toowoomba), and to the Gore Highway at Athol in the west. Design and construction of the TSRC is currently underway under a public private partnership between the State of Queensland and a private sector consortium.
