Q-Free has won a $2.5m contract with Norwegian regional toll operator Vegfinans - it follows a frame agreement that the companies have had since 2020.

The contract will go live on 1 January 2024, and involves service and maintenance for seven years of a total of 23 toll stations in the eastern part of the country.

Q-Free will replace the existing supplier in six of these stations.

This contract is the eleventh signed by Q-Free in Norway in the past 18 months, the company says - and the second with Vegfinans.

Vegard Thomassen, VP Norway and Denmark operations, said the project has "a very tight timeline for delivery".
