Overall traffic measured by total vehicle kilometres travelled increased by 3.3% compared to the same period in 2017.
Light vehicle traffic was up 3.0% whilst heavy goods vehicle traffic increased by 5.2%.
The traffic, in particular the light vehicle one, was favorably impacted by the disruptions affecting the rail service during the second quarter.
MOTORWAY INVESTMENT PLAN
APRR and AREA have signed a motorway investment plan with a value of about 187 million euros. This investment plan is made of 12 projects, in association with local authorities for some of them, and covers the following:
- the creation or enhancements of junctions,
- the construction of wildlife crossings and environmental protections, and
- the building of car sharing parking spaces.
These investment will permit the acceleration of the network development and modernisation, in particular in the fields of protection of the environment and customer service.
This plan is financed by an additional annual tariff increase over the years 2019 to 2021 of 0.198% for APRR and 0.389% for AREA.
