7 Technical interoperability Autopass: A national DSRC-specification for on-board equipment and road-side equipment -Incl. in approval by CEN TC 278 January developed and owned by the Norwegian Public Roads Administration 1999: Introduced 2002: on-board units 2004: on-board units* *Vehicle population: 2.1 mill 7

8 Procedural interoperability - 1 Main applications Invoicing and payment Subscriber management Work station 1 Customer relations Video enforcement Statistics Work station N Interfaces Clearing of cards License plate register Customers Toll stations Sales outlets Banks Reconciliation Subscribers Transactions Video Payment Claims etc Information 8

9 Procedural interoperability - 2 Specification finalised 2000 First implementation 2001 Supply strategy: ASP*-contracts 2003: Implemented for a total of 12 projects 5 planned for implementation next 12 months 3 ASP suppliers in Norway (all local) *Application Service Provider 9

11 Contractual interoperability -1 Autopass Agreement The objective of Autopass Agreement is to allow the user, through a contract with one toll company (issuer), to use his OBU as payment means on other toll roads and ferries - without the need of additional contracts with these operators 11

12 Contractual interoperability -2 Result goals On the 1. Feb 2004 a service will be offered to allow use of all Norwegian toll roads and pay via his local issuer. The solution shall include subscription, invoicing and payment, clearing between operators/issuers, exception handling and customer relations. The service will be developed within the framework of concessionary requirements, requirements related to auditing and requirements for cost effectiveness 12

21 Conclusions Norway has developed and implemented technical interoperability on most toll roads Procedural interoperability has been achieved through a common back-office specification Contractual interoperability will be introduced in January 2004 The first fully automated toll stations in urban areas will be opened in January The Norwegian Public Roads Administration is currently revising the organistion of national toll road administration to achieve higher efficiency and well documented operation. 21
