SLOVAKPASS employs the most intelligent Hybrid approach to fund the restructuring and extension for "Arterials of Slovak Economy"
SLOVAKPASS delivers proven solutions for nationwide truck tolling through reliable, cost effective technology
The SLOVAKPASS Consortium, consisting of Italian leader Autostrade, one of the biggest and most experienced toll operators worldwide,is teamed with Austrian based EFKON, first-placed in Satellite and DSRC tolling technologies. Together they ensure a tailor-made intelligent approach for a sustainable, healthy income enabling the restructuring and extension of the "Arterials of Economy" at the heart of the Slovak roads network.
EFKON CEO Dr Helmut Rieder: "The user system is firmly based on a fourth generation Hybrid On Board Unit, comprising a mix of Satellite/GSM and DSRC technology. Costs have fallen dramatically since the successful introduction of the German Toll System a few years ago, so that the Hybrid On Board Unit now enables a proven, scalable solution that can be readily deployed in high volumes of vehicles. Furthermore, the On Board Unit can easily be mounted by the truck driver in merely a few minutes."
SLOVAKPASS has attuned its high technology Hybrid Solution to an excellent ratio of price and quality, that can be operated to cater for locally diverse conditions of the roads to be tolled, exploiting appropriate and optimal technology combinations for different scenarios and applications.
SLOVAKPASS scores the most highly as a capable technical platform to enable powerful value-added services, competently addressing the key issues faced by traffic planners. EFKON brings best practice in Traffic Telematics, assisting the delivery of government policy to expand the use of the system to meet future goals. We aim to facilitate improved service, safety and security, with environmental benefits and better access to mobility for all to the credit of the Slovak Toll System, and to the advantage of the state and the individual user.
SLOVAKPASS members have the unrivalled track record to guarantee the successful, on-time and on-cost implementation of advanced tolling and telematics schemes which are benchmarks for the whole industry. The team possesses extensive, long-term experience in creating world-class schemes, working in partnership with government to implement commercial operations, by applying a blend of innovation and low-risk, proven technologies. SLOVAKPASS technology partner EFKON´s know-how is commercially deployed in 420.000 Slot based GPS/GSM On Board Units in the largest and most successful truck tolling project in the world, the German truck tolling system. Furthermore, EFKON has delivered 100% of all DSRC communication technology (close to 1million units) also enabling technical interoperability with neighboring countries.
SLOVAKPASS also offers the Slovak government a genuine opportunity to keep a "high local content". In this spirit EFKON will manufacture the Hybrid On Board Unit in Slovakia: "Made in Slovakia for Slovaks and Europeans!"
Mr Peter Newole, Autostrade: "I am very confident that SLOVAKPASS has provided the best commercial and technical offer from all applicants and we would be very pleased and proud to deliver an excellent service to the Slovak Nation!"
