Sund & Bælt Holding A/S, owned by the Danish Ministry of Transport, has signed a contract with Belgian toll technology provider Be-Mobile to develop and deliver a tolling engine to enable truck toll collection on the Danish road network including collection in low-emission zones in cities.

The contract was awarded to Be-Mobile, supported by its local Danish partner COWI A/S, because of the precision and integrity of the platform and the timeliness and reliability with which the platform will be developed and delivered. This shows that Be-Mobile’s technology for map matching, toll context generation and route planning is among the leading ones in Europe.

A proven reliable and high-performance solution

Sund & Bælt is a state-owned company commissioned by the Danish Government to implement a kilometer tolling scheme for trucks in Denmark starting January 1, 2025.

The Be-Mobile tolling software will support the entire process, from receiving and processing data from moving trucks to calculating toll trips and creating the toll billing details. This is based on a digital road map of the Danish road network and considers all relevant (toll) context such as height restrictions, road accessibility, etc.

After a public procurement process including a negotiation meeting, Be-Mobile was selected from three prequalified suppliers because they best met the success criteria according to the evaluation model set by Sund & Bælt. This means offering a stable, reliable, and high-performing operation that is efficient in terms of resources and costs while effectively supporting the obligations of the toll charger. Be-Mobile's solution offers possibilities for continuous improvement and development, for example the possibility of expanding to toll collection for passenger cars, should this be a need in the future.

Jan Cools, CEO of Be-Mobile comments: “We see synergies for the coming years between tolling for trucks and passenger cars, combined with value-added services in parking, fleet management and in-car traffic management. With our connected car platform and community services, we are well positioned to play an important role in this evolution.”
