The Road Pricing Industry

There is a rapid and growing movement by Governments throughout the world towards electronic road pricing to finance infrastructure, control congestion and improve social and environmental outcomes.

It is now recognised that a move to a different way of paying for road use, on the basis of distance, time and location, is required to substantially improve the efficiency of infrastructure use, and deliver the right balance of mode choice and investment.

Technologically progressive tolling offers huge possibilities for the way we build, finance and manage our transport network. The deployment of EROAD’s system represents a significant milestone by demonstrating that it is feasible and practical to introduce road charging across an entire country. There is no requirement for intrusive and expensive roadside infrastructure, and system costs are estimated to be below 5% of toll revenues.

Engineered to deliver an integrated end-to-end solution, our hardware and web application have to meet the highest financial and evidential standards. The Eruc management system has achieved 100% charging accuracy and 100% transaction performance, generating significant benefits for our clients and the government. Fully interoperable, the EROAD solution could be applied to any road network to implement distance, mass, time, location and emission based vehicle charging.
