Your numbers

Fields start empty; the worked example uses illustrative numbers, not a measured result.

Only relevant if you pay for that waiting time — hired vehicles, demurrage.

Gate time

Enter your own figures, or load the worked example, to see the result.

Plate reads depend on the camera per lane, approach angle, speed and night lighting. Where a plate cannot be read dependably, we say so instead of quoting.

How it is calculated

Gate hours = vehicles × Δseconds × days ÷ 3600.

Worked example

120 vehicles a day, 90 seconds falling to 20, over 26 days, gate staff at ₹250 an hour.

70 seconds saved per vehicle, 60.7 gate hours a month, worth ₹15,167 as capacity. Drivers' waiting time is excluded unless you pay for it.

What this does not tell you

A driver's waiting time is not your cash saving unless you pay for it. Real throughput also depends on lanes and barrier hardware.

PGAK supplies this capability; what your site can support is confirmed at the assessment.
