To support international freight transport, Union Tank Eckstein GmbH & Co. KG (8658 UTA) is now offering companies with vehicles over 3.5 tones the option to pay for the toll in Croatia via ENC on-board unit (OBU). The solution is said to cover around 90% of the country’s toll network and can provide drivers with discounts of up to 35%.

Tolls are calculated based on the number of kilometres travelled. Drivers are also able to save time by using the ENC track system, which does not require them to stop at the toll station.

The OBU is available for vehicles in the III and IV categories and can be obtained via registration with the UTA card at sales stations of Croatian tolling company HAC. It can be used on its network as well as the ARZ highway operators.

Any charges due will be settled using the post-payment method via UTA.

In November 2013 the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) starting publishing a list of the state’s most egregious toll violators on its website.
