Road User Charging & Electronic Toll Collection


Presented by ITS South Africa and Newcastle University, UK - With the support of SANRAL

17-18 February 2010
SANRAL, Ditsela Place, Hatfield, Pretoria

The policies that underpin a user pays culture on our national road network are facing some of their greatest challenges in the coming years. The enhancement and maintenance of an efficient public road network are critical to the economic well-being of South Africa. The Gauteng Freeway Improvement Programme (GFIP) and similar upgrade schemes in Cape Town and Durban, alongside enhancements in rail and taxi operations are already demonstrating how broad-based social benefits can be delivered by applying best practice information technology, payment and communication techniques to our transport networks. On our roads, our life is already being made easier through electronic toll collection and automated payment systems. The relationship with road users is also changing from conventional cash payment in toll lanes to unimpeded free-flow charging and back office infrastructure that collects payments and administers evidence-based enforcement effectively and fairly.

ITS South Africa, ITS United Kingdom and Newcastle University, UK, are pleased to present a course on electronic toll collection and road user charging with the support of SANRAL. The course aims to link policy direction with operations and technologies for charging and enforcement in a variety of policy areas from tolling to congestion charging and Time Distance Place (TDP) charging. Finally, international case studies will be provided to show what works - and what doesn't.
