After the increases in motorway tolls effective from January, new increases are on the way that will hit those traveling on the motorway. In fact, Telepass has increased the monthly prices of the basic fee: from July 1stin fact, goes from the current 1.83 to 3.90 euros (VAT included).
This is an increase of more than 113% and may no longer be affordable for many customers. A blow that those who use this system do not like and which risks having negative consequences on tourist arrivals on the Riviera. “A situation that could penalize our sector already burdened by the presence of construction sites”they say hoteliers from Imperia who now fear new repercussions in the economic budgets.
Behind these increases is what society Telepass defines a “new positioning on the consumer marketr” and which would allow it to become “the main integrated mobility operator“.
Telepass explains that the modification “is dictated in particular by the significant increase in charges, costs and investments for Telepass, by the increasingly high quality level of the payment services provided and by the market repositioning of the related offer“. In essence, the company aims to offer a complete and digital service in payment systems related to mobility and, therefore, increases prices.
