1 The German Tolling Prospects Christian Kohlhase First Secretary (Transport, Building and Urban Affairs) National Governors Association State Summit on Innovative Transportation Funding and Financing Washington, D.C. 25 June

2 Objectives To introduce infrastructure charging based on the user pays principle To secure funding for the further upgrading and maintenance of transport infrastructures To provide an incentive to shift freight traffic to the rail and waterway modes, in the interests of the environment, and to deploy HGVs more efficiently To promote innovative technologies 2

3 Germany One operator - 12,500 km - 2,213 motorway junctions motorway intersections HGVs subject to tolls - approx. 1.5 million HGVs - approx. 35 % foreign HGVs Mileage subject to tolls - approx bn km per year - approx. 35 % by foreign HGVs Infrastructure 3

4 Legal Framework Coalition agreement of October 1998 For the purpose of a fair allocation of infrastructure costs, the time-related motorway user charge for lorries will be replaced as early as possible with an electronic fee collection system stem based on the vehicle mileage. This will also contribute te to shifting a certain percentage of goods carried to rail and waterway transport. 12 April 2002: Motorway toll act enters into law HGVs with a maximum permissible weight of 12 t or more Charges based on the exact number of kilometers driven Non discrimination: Automatic and manual booking Toll rates according to number of axles and emission categories: 9-14 cents/km Earmarking of revenue 1 January 2005 Tolling started on the Federal motorways 4

5 From Infrastructure Costs to Tolls Total costs for motorways: Costs imposed by HGVs on motorways: Pro rata HGV mileage: Average toll rate: 7.5 bn 3.4 bn 22.7 bn km 15 cents/km Lower average rate to reduce the burden on the haulage industry: 13.5 cents/km Pricing by axles cents/km and emission classes: 5

10 Integrated Transport Policy Toll revenue is used to improve transport infrastructure 50 % for road infrastructure 38 % for railways 12 % for waterways 10

11 Investments in Federal Roads (bn. EUR) 7 5,29 5,20 5,07 5,58 5,63 5,69 5,96 6,26 6, ,86 0,88 0,9 0,92 0,92 0, ,92 1,11 1,00 0,98 1,71 1, ,43 4, ,17 4,66 4,71 4,77 3,93 3,55 3, Investitionen Investitionen - Maut Nicht Investitionen 11

12 Enforcement (1/2) Effective enforcement by means of spot checks Four different types of spot check Automatic checks backed up by video Stationary checks following automatic checks Mobile checks Checks on the premises of German haulage companies 12

13 Enforcement (2/2) Results of checks Spot checks 10 % of trips Violations below 2 % (original estimate: 5 %) Fines up to 20,000 Fines for first offenders: Haulier (intentional offense) 400 Haulier (negligence) 200 Driver half the company fine in each case 13

14 Effects of the Tolls Reduced number of empty kilometres Share of cleaner vehicles rose 14

15 HGV Toll Statistics Unprecedented d possibility to establish a comprehensive overview of HGV traffic on federal motorways Motorway Toll Act sets out stringent data protection requirements Only anonymized data must be used to establish the operating statistics of the Federal Office for Goods Transport and the operator Toll statistics of the Federal Office for Goods Transport Publication of monthly statistics since January 2008 Generation of special statistical reports as a chargeable service 15

16 Interoperability and European Transport Policy (1/2) Directive 2004/52/EC on interoperability of electronic road toll systems Objectives Appropriate level of interoperability at the European level One Onboard-Unit, one contract One single OBU, one single contract, one billing Implementation of an European electronic toll service 16

17 Interoperability and European Transport Policy (2/2) Technologies Satellite positioning Mobile communication using the GSM-GPRS standard 5,8 GHz microwave technology Recommendation for satellite positioning and mobile communication Interoperability with neighbour countries German toll system has an interface for DSRC (dedicated short range communications) systems Basis for interoperability with DSRC systems 17

18 Prospects HGV tolling: it is the key project in the reform of transport policy Largest PPP project in Germany HGV tolling means changeover to user pays principle Toll Collect is competitive and a world leader in tolling technology Support to industry in marketing Great international interest (Europe, China, Russia, USA) The stage has been set for intelligent traffic management systems: Variation according to place and time of day Value added services 18
