The French Riviera service area on the A8 was renovated to meet motorway users’ expectations.
ULYS
With a record 1.1 million new subscriptions in 2023, at the end of the year more than 6 million Ulys badges were in use. VINCI Autoroutes’ all-digital brand consolidated its leading position in road mobility multi-service subscriptions in France. Besides using their badge to pay for e-tolls in four countries (France, Spain, Portugal and Italy) and for parking in 1,000 car parks across Europe, the Ulys Electric pass was used by nearly 50,000 customers by end-2023 to charge their electric vehicles across France. From May to December 2023, badge holders enjoyed a 10% reduction on charging rates at all stations in France both on and off the motorway.
In addition, as part of the VINCI Autoroutes policy promoting everyday mobility, especially commutes to and from work, the cost of 70% of routes under 30 km and all itineraries bypassing 35 major metropolitan areas did not increase in 2023. At the same time, VINCI Autoroutes offered pass holders a special reduction of 30% to 40% on all trips made on a single journey of their choice for 2023 only, whenever 10 return trips were taken in a month regardless of distance. Another measure that VINCI Autoroutes implemented to support network users’ buying power was to grant a 20% reduction on toll payments to travellers who used holiday vouchers to buy or top up their Ulys Liber-t Vacances electronic toll badge.
