Electronic Tollways (Cashless) (Mod Creater Please)

[F1rstn1ght]

Hello Lovely community,
This is my first post, hope I posted in the right place
Back here in Australia we have electronic pay tollways (E-toll or cashless tolls), I was hopping and wondering if any Mod Creater would be able to create these for me and the community as I would love these in my CitySkylines, City Monte! :)

I was hoping for cashless toll for the 1 lane exit / entry ramps and the national roads, also the 2,3,4 lane highways. And possibly be able to have them elevated as well as on the ground.

I would be very thankful to any mod creater that would be able to or wants to tackle this request, I have had a look through the workshop and couldn't find anything like this.
It would be a First!

Heres some link to pictures for what I mean.

I want to charge drivers tolls for entering and exiting the highway, without them queuing up so the traffic still flows fast and it'll all be electronic with cameras no cash or stopping required.
I would love to learn to create my own mod, though due to not having much spare time, I'd rather play the game first

What you can do at the moment is to put a policy in place that the toll is automatically paid for all residents, or workers, or industries if you put it in place.

That is the closest you can replicate our E-TAG :)

The downside is you lose a little bit income

Yup, that 30% decrease in income for enacting the Automated Toll policy is a huge loss. Also I only ever place toll booths on the entry and exit points to my city as that's where they're most profitable. Every inbound and\or outbound traffic will be forced to fork the moolah just to pass through, exploiting the game's dummy traffic as well ^_^

Thats a fantastic idea, snowflitzer, I didn't even realise there was an option in the policy so you could do that, I'll have to have a look and give it ago for the meantime, I have a few highways that I would just like to make E-TAG friendly :) which would be cool!! My highway to the airport to get in and out fast, and also my main highway through the city, Thank for the ideas!

lol but the E-TAG is a good idea :) but how to get it into the game.... could be tricky

i would love it if there was a Express lane E-TAG toll like here in the states. many cities are building them and they have congestion pricing too!
