OmniAir Wins Final Approval to Develop and Test Specification for National Toll Interoperability

I-95 Corridor Coalition’s Executive Committee Approves the project at the December Annual Meeting in Norfolk, Virginia.

Washington, DC – December 2006 – the OmniAir Consortium met a key objective in the association’s work plan by receiving approval from the I-95 Corridor Coalition’s Executive Committee for its funding request to develop and test an Electronic Payment Services National Interoperability Specification (EPSNIS) for tolling. The project, in short, is to define the interface protocol standards for transaction processing and test the specification on both legacy and 5.9GHz DSRC prototype systems. Throughout the project which begins in February 2007, OmniAir’s EPS Committee will work with the toll industry, banks, other payment systems stakeholders, and specifically with four partners.
