The biggest disadvantage of building a toll plaza is that it increases the traffic on highway. Therefore the aim of our study is to observe the present situation of traffic congestion at a highway toll plaza and how can we use Queuing Theory and draw the possible solutions to increase the efficiency in order to reduce the waiting time of the customers and their money as well. There are multiple phases in which this study is carried out or identification of the problem, collection of the data, data analysis and then a toll plaza in Delhi was selected to do the analysis. The current operational effectiveness of can be drawn using data analysis and the parameters such as the Arrival Rates, Service Rates and the Number of toll booths.
