Network map: who manages each section?

Sections of the same motorway may be managed by different concessionaires.

Official ASPI group map: Autostrade per l’Italia sections are blue, and subsidiary companies' sections are turquoise.

How to read the map

  • Blue - Autostrade per l’Italia: sections managed directly by ASPI.
  • Turquoise - “Società controllate”: sections and facilities managed by subsidiary companies in the group.
  • Asterisk (*): management applies only to the section explicitly named. For example, the map identifies Serravalle-Genova on A7, not the whole of A7.

The map shows the ASPI group's network.

What does this mean for your toll?

Each concessionaire sets its own rates, including companies within the same group.

For example, the A4 section shown is Milano-Brescia.

How is the final toll calculated?

  1. Identify the class of your vehicle or combination.
  2. Split the route by operator and the applicable flatland or mountain tariff.
  3. Multiply each section's chargeable kilometres by its unit rate.
  4. Add the amounts and apply the rounding rule.

Why are mountain sections more expensive?

Mountain sections have higher rates because of the costs of tunnels, viaducts and maintenance.

Routes crossing several concessionaires' networks

For a route crossing several networks, calculate the toll using each operator's kilometres and unit rates before rounding the total.

Your navigation system's distance may differ from the chargeable distance.

The chargeable distance may include junction links and approaches to toll stations.

How is the amount rounded?

Usually to the nearest 0.10 €: a remainder below 0.05 € rounds down, and 0.05 € or more rounds up. For example, 1.13 € becomes 1.10 €, while 1.16 € becomes 1.20 €. For Tangenziale di Napoli, the operator specifies a 0.05 € increment.

Calculation method: The operator's official explanation.

WORKED EXAMPLE

Class A: 100 km of flatland + 50 km of mountain sections

Assume a hypothetical route entirely on the Autostrade per l’Italia network with exactly these chargeable distances:

Part of routeCalculationAmount
Flatland100 × 0.078697.86900 €
Mountain50 × 0.093154.65750 €
Before rounding7.86900 + 4.6575012.52650 €
After roundingTo 0.10 €12.50 €

This example uses a hypothetical route. The total is rounded after adding the charges for each section.

Payment: closed and open systems

Closed system - ticket at entry

Take a ticket when entering and present it at the exit. The toll depends on the recorded route and vehicle class. If using a compatible electronic service, use the lanes marked for that service.

Open system - fixed section charge

Sections with a fixed charge are paid at one toll station, without taking an entry ticket.

Lanes approaching the barriers are marked for cash, card or electronic device payment.
