NLEX Corp. said it has completed the radio frequency identification (RFID) upgrading project at the toll lane level throughout the entire North Luzon Expressway (NLEX) and Subic-Clark-Tarlac Expressway (SCTEX) network.
With this, the number of NLEX-SCTEX toll lanes with advanced reading feature increases to 188, as 132 antennas were realigned last year and additional 56 this year.
The project involved a thorough engineering review that identified the best possible positioning of the RFID antennas and sensors to quickly detect the RFID stickers installed in customers’ vehicles, the company said.
Compared to the previous setup, the enhanced RFID scanners can detect up to three vehicles in advance and quickly identify, record and process the toll lane transactions. – Myla Iglesias
