Market assessment of suppliers:

The NRA hired external consultants to carry out a Global Best Practice Study to identify an initial list of potential ESD suppliers, determine the feasibility of implementing a barrier-free tolling system, identify best practices and highlight any potential risks and challenges in the current market place.

The main challenge was to launch the operation of a newtype (“first generation”) ofelectronic road pricing on the busiest motorway in the State and successfully collect tolls from up to 100,000 vehicles from the first day of operations and over 1,400,000 individual vehicles within the first six months.
