toll barriers

Highway fee stations

Toll barriers are structures on roads, bridges, or tunnels where drivers must pay a fee to proceed.

Traditional toll barriers feature gates or booths staffed by collectors; modern versions use electronic sensors for automatic payment without stopping.

Traffic backed up at the toll barrier for miles.
