750,000 new Ulys electronic toll collection subscriptions in 2021, or 63% of new subscriptions across all networks under concession in France.
enriched the Ulys app – which crossed the 1 million active users mark in 2021 – with more traffic news features (customised journey time and notifications, webcams at the network’s major congestion points) and exclusive deals with its network of 50 partners for Ulys Team club members.
Ulys e-Drive, a subscription for electric vehicle travellers, was also launched in 2021 and includes roadside assistance across the entire motorway network if the subscriber’s battery dies. Ulys app users can now also geo-locate the electric charging stations on their route, with over 40,000 stations listed across France’s motorway and road network. After simplifying its subscription offering for private individuals in 2020, Ulys did the same for business customers in 2021, introducing three new formulas to suit the different needs of this category of clientele, which ranges from self-employed artisans to corporate fleets.
