4984 Kapsch TrafficCom subsidiary Kapsch TrafficCom Australia is to replace the existing road tolling systems for Sydney Harbour Bridge and Sydney Harbour Tunnel operated by the New South Wales Roads and Maritime Services (RMS).

The contract, worth more than US$112 million (€10 million), comprises supply of a new tolling system, as well as maintenance and support for five years. The new tolling solution is expected to be operating by early 2017.

Kapsch will deliver its latest tolling technology based on the company’s single gantry multi-lane free-flow (MLFF) platform and next vehicle detection and classification (N-VDC) solution.

The Sydney Harbour Bridge currently uses an existing automated solution installed in the pre-existing manual toll plazas built when tolls were paid in cash. The new solution will allow the toll plazas to be removed and the traffic flow on the bridge to be improved.

The Sydney Harbour Tunnel has a slightly newer setup without plazas, but will be upgraded as part of the contract to the latest tolling technology.
