The Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge is a world-class sea channel, and this research analyzed the level of service and capacity of the toll plaza of this bridge. The delay and queue length under two different charging methods - namely, Manual Toll Collection (MTC) and Electronic Toll Collection (ETC) - in different volume forecast years were analyzed with a traffic simulation method. Based on the operation indicators, the levels of service in different traffic demands of the toll plaza were evaluated. Furthermore, the capacities of the toll lane combinations of MTC and ETC were calculated using theoretical formulas, and toll lane allocation under different traffic demands was recommended. This research can provide a useful reference to management for decision making.
