Romanian Road Authority To Introduce Electronic Toll System On Oct 1

CNADNR will also introduce a road toll sticker valid for three months, according to a Transport Ministry press release on Thursday.

Already purchased stickers will remain valid for their duration.

Compensation for a missing or invalid sticker will amount to EUR28 for cars, EUR96 for cargo carriers weighing up to 3.5 tons, EUR320 tons for trucks weighing between 3.5 and 7.5 tons, EUR560 for trucks weighing between 7.5 and 12 tons, as well as for passenger carriers with more than 23 seats, EUR720 tons for trucks heavier than 12 tons, which have 3 axles, and EUR1,210 for 4-axled vehicles heavier than 12 tons. This money, equal to the price of a one-year road toll sticker, will go to the budget of CNADNR.

Fines will be between 250 and 500 lei (EUR1=RON4.2674) for cars, RON750-1200 for vehicles weighing up to 3.5 tons, and can reach RON4,500 for trucks heavier than 12 tons which have 4 axles.

The sticker can be bought from any CNADNR office, petrol stations MOL, Rompetrol, Petrom and OMV, Post offices, the National Union of Romanian Road Transporters, or from distributors Scalla, Speedy, Medina and Pasaj.

End-December 2009, CNADNR selected Romanian companies Novensys Corporation/UTI Systems to ensure the computerized system needed to issue, manage, monitor and control road toll stickers, for RON35.96 million, VAT not included.
