Following its 650-page Road Charging Global Study, published earlier this year, 8147 Ptolemus Consulting Group has released its ranking of electronic toll collection (ETC) suppliers, said to be the first independent evaluation of e-tolling suppliers worldwide.

Companies were assessed across three distinct groups: systems integrators, technology suppliers and service providers. 4984 Kapsch TrafficCom was found to be the number one global systems integrator, with 1813 Autostrade per l’Italia and 480 Sanef ITS completing the top three. Kapsch was also ranked first in Europe, Asia and the Americas, aided by its experience of integrating multiple tolling models, protocols and technologies.

Autostrade per l’Italia, Sanef ITS, 43 Efkon and 108 Q-Free ranked highly in the European systems market thanks to their experience in dedicated short-range communications (DSRC) and automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) integration. The report says that if they are able to build on the successful delivery of GNSS-based systems in Slovakia, Germany and Belgium, 189 Siemens and 7157 T-Systems could feature highly in the future.

The strength of the US tolling market has put 139 TransCore and 4186 Xerox into the top five integrators across the Americas, despite limited presence elsewhere.

The rankings assessed tolling and ITS providers in different regions, based on a wide range of criteria including: experience, track record, innovation, global footprint, focus on ETC and enforcement capabilities.

According to Ptolemus, the results of the rankings, built with a customer-centric view, highlight not only the competence of the leaders, but also the opportunities for new and smaller players in various segments of the market.

Other companies mentioned in the ranking include Autostrade (Atlantia), Axxès, 311 Bosch, DKV Euro Service, 533 Egis Projects, Electronic Transaction Consultants, 4962 Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Shell, Telepass and Union Tank (UTA).

    According to TomTom’s latest Traffic Index, traffic congestion has increased 13 per cent globally since 2008. But there are big differences between continents; while North America’s traffic congestion has jumped by 17 per cent, Europe has risen just two per cent. TomTom believe the contrasts probably are driven by economic growth in North America and financial troubles in the many parts of Europe. In particular, some countries have recorded a marked drop in traffic over the past eight years, including It
