Halifax Harbour Bridges Issues RFP For Roadside Toll Collection System
Halifax Harbour Bridges (HHB), operator of Nova Scotia’s MacKay and Macdonald toll bridges, posted a request for proposals for a modern in-lane/in-plaza Roadside Tolling System. The scope of work includes planning, designing, installing, and testing all hardware and software components, and providing training, documentation, and post-implementation services and maintenance. “The system will be capable of capturing data from the lanes, processing it and sending it to other HHB systems.” Vendors interested in submitting a proposal can obtain a copy of the RFP documents by emailing Cornelia Cristea at ccristea@hdbc.ns.ca.
A pre-bid call is scheduled for Thursday August 1, at 12:00 PM ADT. The deadline for submitting responses is September 23, 2024, at 11:00 AM ADT.
(A related RFP for engineering consulting services remains open through August 27.)

The Kansas Turnpike Authority (KTA) has started to remove the tollbooths made obsolete by its recent conversion to cashless tolling, the Lawrence Journal-World reports. On Tuesday, crews using a crane dismantled the North Lawrence toll plaza and trucked away the pieces. At Exits 197, 202 and 204, KTA plans to start pavement restoration work once structures and barriers are fully removed. KTA’s Rachel Bell says the dismantling process will go on for about 18 months across the turnpike and closures aren’t anticipated.

ABC.az reports, high-speed toll lanes have opened at the two ends of Azerbaijan’s Baku-Goba toll highway on the Russian border. Cars equipped with a prepaid TEQ card that has a “special chip” can pay the toll without stopping. “Special license plate reading cameras, video surveillance cameras, equipment for classifying cars, and other innovative technological equipment conforming to the latest technological standards are installed on the lanes providing non-stop travel.” Officials have plans to install MilliÖN payment terminals at other points in the near future. The terminals will be configured to accept TEQ card payments. A representative from the State Agency of Highways stressed that TEQ cards are available for both Azerbaijani citizens and foreign visitors.
