Global intelligent transport systems (ITS) provider Kapsch TrafficCom has secured a five-year contract to provide technical operations for toll systems in Bulgaria.
Under the contract, Kapsch Traffic Solutions, a consortium of various Kapsch TrafficCom Group companies, will be responsible for providing technical operations for the country’s passenger vehicle e-vignette system and the electronic truck toll systems.
Furthermore, Kapsch Traffic Solutions will provide services such as maintenance of all hardware and software and the operation of the data centres.
Kapsch Traffic Solutions secured the contract through a bidding process, and the total project volume amounts to around €60m (£53.5m).
The consortium claimed that it built and implemented the passenger vehicle e-vignette system and electronic truck toll system in Bulgaria. These systems were handed over to the state in 2019 and 2020 respectively.
