Using this system, all toll payments are made automatically through a<strong> licence-plate reading system<\/strong> or with TAGs. The result is a <strong>10 to 30 % reduction in emissions<\/strong> by avoiding cars having to stop and start.<\/li><li><strong>Managed Lanes:<\/strong>&nbsp;are lanes built to run parallel to toll-free lanes which are usually congested during rush hour. The aim is for users to have the option of using these managed lanes, where <strong>traffic flows are guaranteed<\/strong>, in exchange for toll payments. This also implies that toll-free lanes will be<strong> less congested<\/strong>, with traffic flowing more freely and, as a result, fewer cars starting and stopping in traffic jams with a subsequent reduction in emissions.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img
