The revenue generating potential of road tolls in Norway is worth US$1.72 billion (NOK 10bn) a year, according to National Public Roads Administration (Vegdirektoratet).
The estimate, following a review by Vegdirektoratet for the 2014-2023 National Transport Plan (NTP) launched by the Norwegian government, is up significantly on the $1.03 billion (NOK 6bn) revenues estimated in the current NTP. According to the Administration, contributing factors to the rise in toll potential include increasing interest in road toll projects and a general acceptance of higher tolls.
