Takanari Tollbooth is a checkpoint along the expressway network in Nagoya where vehicles pay for highway access. The station has separate lanes for automated payments and manual booths serving different payment methods.

The tollbooth was built during Japan's post-war reconstruction in the 1960s when the country was rapidly expanding its expressway network. It became part of this major national infrastructure development that enabled economic growth and vehicle mobility.

The facility demonstrates Japanese efficiency in transportation infrastructure, with precise scheduling and systematic toll collection methods that support national mobility.

Vehicles can pay tolls with cash, credit cards, or the electronic toll system called ETC, which uses an installed device to process payments automatically. The ETC service allows equipped vehicles to pass through lanes at normal speed without stopping.

The ETC system allows vehicles with special devices to pass through without slowing down, which is remarkable for maintaining traffic flow. This technology was developed to avoid congestion and reduce travel times on highways.
