Reduction of congestion, economic and transport growth and a positive impact on climate change – the right road user charging schemes can deliver all this.

The need for such schemes is unquestionable as a congestion and pollution management tool. Furthermore, technological advances provide further stimulus to RUC projects. Notwithstanding all this, getting such schemes operational can still be fraught with difficulties.

RUC 2010 is the event where all market participants and decision makers (public authorities, suppliers, operators and consultants) gather to find solutions to the successful launch and implementation of RUC projects.
