(b) Each highway project constructed or operated under this Act is considered to be part of: (1) the State highway system for purposes of identification, maintenance standards, and enforcement of traffic laws if the highway project is under the jurisdiction of the Department; or (2) the toll highway system for purposes of identification, maintenance standards, and enforcement of traffic laws if the highway project is under the jurisdiction of the Authority. (c) Any unit of local government or State agency may enter into agreements with the contractor for maintenance or other services under this Act. (d) Any electronic toll collection system used on a toll highway, bridge, or tunnel as part of a transportation project must be compatible with the electronic toll collection system used by the Authority. The Authority is authorized to construct, operate, and maintain any electronic toll collection system used on a toll highway, bridge, or tunnel as part of a transportation project pursuant to an agreement with the responsible public entity or the contractor responsible for the transportation project. All private entities and public agencies shall have an equal opportunity to contract with the Authority to provide construction, operation, and maintenance services.
