Vienna/Warsaw, January 30th 2012. At this year's
"Financier of the Year" gala event in Warsaw,
Kapsch was given an award for the efficiency of its fully
electronic toll system viaTOLL for having brought in higher
revenues than expected last year. The modern toll system
for all vehicles over 3.5 tonnes in total weight has
been in operation on the existing road network of around
1,560 km since July 3rd 2011. It was constructed
by Kapsch in just a few months.
"This award means a lot to us, because we implemented
the system in record time. We had less than eight months in
which to complete the implementation of this challenging
project", explains Michael Gschnitzer, Sales
Director at Kapsch TrafficCom. "The sharp rise in
revenues confirms the quality of our toll system".
Kapsch System enables infrastructure financing in
Poland
"Financier of the Year" cited the precision of
the fully electronic toll system as one of the main reasons
for the award. According to the latest results, use of the
toll system brought in higher-than-expected revenues last
year. During the last six months, PLN 417 million were
generated for road infrastructure projects -
17 million more than planned. This positive outcome
was decisive for the award, and the project was described
by the jury as "the most efficient system for
financing road-building projects in 20 years".
The "Financier of the Year" awards have been
conferred for twelve years by the editorial team of the
weekly finance magazine Gazeta Finansowa.
