I mean that’s clearly just a toll plaza, right? Not actually a 50-lane highway, that then drops down to 4. Also that’s not 50, looks closer to 25-30 toll lanes.
In the U.S. we put a sticker on the windshield that gets scanned when the car passes through. While you are supposed to slow down a bit they work just fine at 100km/hour. They could leave the road at 4 lanes and get rid of all of the booths. Minimal traffic back up.
We purchase the stickers at your local grocery store.
It’s a bit hard to tell accurately from this picture but I counted the lanes of cars near the bottom somewhere in the 48-50 range though there are only 25 or so actually toll booths so who knows.

Yeah. They could make some improvements so the merge back is better, but it’s 4 to 30(?) to 4. Not as horrible as it looks.
Maybe not but it still looks like a miserable traffic jam to be in
Looking at the pavement, I wonder if it wasn’t as abrupt in the past but then they added that second building and screwed it up?

They work just fine at 140km/h too. There are parts of Texas where toll roads are 85mph.
Regardless, I’m still relieved I’m not there.

Reminds me of this one from Mexico City (autopista del Sol)
