The Western Harbour Tunnel project represents a major industry milestone as the first deployment of tagless, video-only tolling in Australia. By eliminating the need for roadside tags and transponders, the solution reduces customer friction, simplifies account management, and integrates more seamlessly with TfNSW鈥檚 broader transport technology ecosystem. This approach was selected following a highly competitive procurement process, underscoring TransCore鈥檚 leadership in advanced video tolling worldwide.
TransCore鈥檚 tolling and back-office systems process billions of transactions annually and are trusted by transportation agencies in the U.S. and Middle East for their accuracy, scalability and reliability.
TransCore is expected to complete equipment installation at the Western Harbour Tunnel in 2027, with tolling operations commencing in 2028. The Western Harbour Tunnel is a 6.5-kilometre motorway under construction that will connect the Rozelle Interchange to the Warringah Freeway near North Sydney, crossing under the Sydney Harbour between Birchgrove and Waverton. When completed, the tunnel is expected to improve journey times and ease congestion on the Sydney Harbour Bridge, supporting the city鈥檚 long-term growth and strengthening the resilience of its transport network.
This contract award represents an important step in TransCore鈥檚 international expansion, as the company continues to bring its proven tolling and mobility solutions to markets around the world.
