Get a hands-on feel of how ARENA will work

摘要

The World Congress In Stockholm will be the first opportunity for ITS professionals to see how Sweden's proposals to implement an HGV kilometre tax will work in practice. Visitors to the outdoor Experience Park will be able to hop on a small electric vehicle -just like taking a trip round Lego Land - and take a guided tour through a charging experience.rnDone it all before? Well, not quite like this. There are road user charging systems already in place in Europe but Sweden's ARENA project represents the first attempt to implement the business model that lies at the heart of the EETS (European Electronic Toll Service) Directive. EETS requires that the vehicle driver can pay for road usage using the same on board equipment, the same contract and with a single invoice, regardless of where he travels within Europe.
