The Toll Roads overlay visualizes segments on which toll costs are charged in general. By default toll for all types of vehicles is shown, but the overlay style can be adapted to any specific vehicle type. The data is not time-dependent and does not contain any exact toll costs.
API endpoint
You need the following API endpoint to request toll:
https://api.myptv.com/maps/overlays/v1/vector-tiles/Request
For a single tile showing Karlsruhe, Germany specify the map tile path with zoomLevel, x and y as shown below.
You can test this by entering the URL into your web browser. Be sure to replace YOUR_API_KEY with your actual API key.
https://api.myptv.com/maps/overlays/v1/vector-tiles/11/1072/703?layers=toll&apiKey=YOUR_API_KEYResponse
The call result is a single map tile in MapBox Vector Tiles format.
