The Italian government he has system reform on his agenda highway, which could have a significant impact on tolls and infrastructure efficiency. The main objective is to introduce a single national tariff for all users, standardizing the costs of travel on a national scale and avoiding that in some motorway sections (see the A24 Autostrada dei Parchi) motorists have to pay significantly higher motorway tolls (from Rome to L'Aquila, 117 km for € 12.30, €0.10513/km, against €0.0754/km in the stretch from Rimini to Miano, €23.9 for 317 km). This reform also aims to ensure a more equitable economic distribution between the different motorway sections and to finance the investments necessary to improve the infrastructure.
The Ministry of Infrastructure is starting a renovation of the motorway concessionswith the introduction of State highwaysan organization charged with managing tolled state highways.
Single fare on the motorway
The Government hypothesizes the introduction of 'median' cost mechanisms, doing network disruptions will also have an impact on tolls such as construction sites for work in progress, traffic, level of accidents and absence of the third lane. The reform of the motorway system has been included in the annex to DEF 2024 that is called “Strategies for infrastructure, mobility and logistics”. The ones have been listed here MIT strategies for the infrastructure, mobility and logistics necessary for the reform of the motorway system.
In fact, with the reform the Ministry of Infrastructure and Transport aims to define and activate procedures for updating road concessions to obtain more advantageous tariffs and greater investments in the network. Current challenges include variable tariffs between concessions that hinder effective traffic management and territorial equity, as well as limiting tariff-based traffic management policies.
Motorway toll calculation
Motorway managers are cautious about the idea of a single national tariff, stressing that rates vary based on investments carried out for the construction and maintenance of motorways. In fact now the calculation of motorway tolls occurs through resolutions of the CIPESS and agreements between concessionaire companies and the State.
It multiplies the unit rate of the operator for the km travelled, theVAT at 22% and rounding to 10 euro cents is applied. Only in the Naples ring road the rounding is to 5 euro cents. The construction, management and maintenance costs of the motorway section influence the determination of each tariff.
State highways
The reform of the motorway system in Italy also includes the creation of Autostrade dello Stato SpA, a wholly public company responsible for the management of state highways under concession, without tender. Someone functions of Anas will be transferred to the new company.
Matteo Salvini, the Minister of Infrastructure and Transport, declared that the objective is to contain high tolls and standardize prices by creating a public concessionaire. State highways will be controlled by Ministry of Economy and Finance and supervised by MIT to ensure quality, safety and transparency.
The affected network includes over 200 km of the entire Italian motorway networkcurrently managed by Anas and its subsidiaries Cav and Sitaf. The highways involved are therefore: A4 Mestre bypass and Padua East-Venice East section (Cav); A57 Marco Polo junction and Western ring road of Mestre (Cav); T4 Frejus Tunnel (Sitaf).
