The work included implementing the CS gantry FastFlow system with attached antennas, lasers, and cameras, as well as interfacing with the existing RITBA field system. CS America was able to leverage its experience in similar projects throughout the US and worldwide. The project continues RITBA’s use of the E-ZPass system, while introducing new system features like licence plate image review which is vital to ORT systems.
“We are extremely pleased to offer our community faster travel in time for the summer activities of our tourist season,” said Buddy Croft, RITBA’s executive director. “Our tolling contractor, CS-America stepped up to an extremely tight timeframe and brought the project in on time and on budget, two things as a customer we place a high value on.”
