The Global Vehicle Tolling System Market was valued at USD 14.8 billion in 2025 and is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 7.7% to reach USD 30.9 billion by 2035.

Governments worldwide are accelerating the adoption of electronic and connected tolling solutions through infrastructure modernization policies and regulatory support. Cashless tolling is increasingly viewed as essential for reducing congestion, improving road efficiency, and enhancing user convenience across passenger and commercial transport. Digital tolling platforms now manage extensive tolled road networks, enabling automated payment processing and smoother traffic movement. Public investment frameworks continue to support congestion management and intelligent transport systems, reinforcing long-term demand. Transport authorities are rapidly replacing physical toll booths with advanced electronic models that allow uninterrupted vehicle movement. Interoperability requirements are becoming standard, allowing a single vehicle identification device to function across multiple regions. Industry data indicates that nearly 78% of toll transactions worldwide are now processed electronically. Collaboration between public agencies and private operators is improving system compatibility, simplifying user access, and reducing administrative complexity.

The automatic vehicle identification segment generated USD 7 billion in 2025. This segment leads due to its ability to deliver fast and accurate vehicle recognition using electronic identification technologies. Automated identification reduces manual intervention, improves toll accuracy, and supports seamless integration with modern tolling infrastructure. Rising deployment of electronic toll collection systems globally continues to support strong growth for this segment.

The highways and expressways segment accounted for 68.1% share in 2025 and is expected to reach USD 20.2 billion by 2035. These roadways dominate tolling investments due to high traffic density, consistent revenue generation, and early adoption of advanced tolling technologies that support long-distance and high-speed travel.

US Vehicle Tolling System Market reached USD 5.1 billion in 2025. State-level initiatives focus on improving freight efficiency, enhancing regional connectivity, and reducing congestion through expanded toll road networks. Automated tolling technologies are increasingly replacing manual collection to improve operational efficiency and traffic flow.

Key companies operating in the Global Vehicle Tolling System Market include Thales, Siemens, Kapsch TrafficCom, Cubic, Conduent, Toshiba, Verra Mobility, ST Engineering, AECOM, and Mundys. Companies in the vehicle tolling system market strengthen their competitive position by investing in advanced digital platforms, interoperability standards, and scalable infrastructure solutions. Providers focus on developing end-to-end tolling ecosystems that integrate hardware, software, analytics, and back-office operations. Strategic partnerships with governments and infrastructure operators support long-term contracts and large-scale deployments. Firms also prioritize data security, real-time traffic analytics, and system reliability to meet regulatory and user expectations. Expansion into emerging regions, along with modular solutions that support multi-lane free-flow environments, helps companies capture new revenue streams and reinforce their global market presence.
