Webfleet truck toll reporting provides a real-time breakdown of the toll costs incurred for each trip, allowing transport companies to better manage expenses and provide customers with transparent invoices.
 
The functionality works for all applicable national tolls in France, Germany, Austria and Slovakia and will also cover the proposed French Ecotaxe, reporting on the CO2 emissions for each trip and estimating the total costs.
 
“Cost management is crucial for transport companies who are operating on tight profit margins,” said Thomas Schmidt, managing director, TomTom Business Solutions. “TomTom's latest feature provides actionable data that enables businesses to demonstrate precisely where and when toll charges have been incurred, vital particularly if these costs are to be passed on to the customer."

While somewhat politically controversial, outsourcing has gained traction in the business world as a model worth investigating for its efficiency and cost saving benefits.

    Next year sees the start of the first real-life electrified road system for transporting freight.
