The vehicle transponder system is designed with state of the art electronic readers positioned at each gate to read transponders from a transponder equipped vehicle in all inbound lanes of traffic. • The transponder system will open the barrier arm and then the swing gate for all registeredvehicles. • To prevent tailgating the barrier arm will close immediately after a vehicle has cleared the barrier arm identification system. • A non-transponder equipped vehicle will not activate the system Method of Operation
