How abt system followed by Singapore to reduce congestion in roads?
The Land
Transport Authority (LTA) in Singapore implemented an Electronic
Road Pricing (ERP) scheme to deter traffic congestion during peak hours at
various roads. The ERP scheme requires electronic gantries to be placed over
the road at designated locations and that cars be equipped with an In-Vehicle
Unit (IU), a rectangular device pasted on the inside bottom right of the front
windscreen from the driver's view, which will deduct the toll price from aCashCard. The CashCard
must be inserted into the device, and failure to do so is in violation of law.
There is no charge for entering the area during certain non-peak times.
