Video tolling on the A4 motorway Katowice-Krakow/ works on the motorway
Toll collection which uses registration plate images (so-called video tolling) is an excellent and simple solution for drivers who use the A4 Katowice-Kraków motorway from time to time, for example on their way for holidays or a long weekend.
You just have to:
- Download Autopay application to your mobile phone from Google Play or App Store.
- Register in the application, providing registration number of your vehicle and your card number and then
you can enjoy fast passage at toll collection plazas in Mysłowice and Balice through specially marked motorway toll gates (two outer left gates and one gate at the toll collection plaza on the right).
Tolls are collected at two toll collection plazas mentioned above: half at entry gate and half at exit gate. For example, payment card of a driver who travels from Katowice to Kraków will be charged PLN 10 at toll collection plaza in Mysłowice and PLN 10 at toll collection plaza in Balice.
Video tolling gates are marked like this:
Toll collection plazas are in turn marked like this:
Drivers of passenger vehicles as well as light commercial vehicles and heavy goods vehicles (category 1 vehicles with the exception of motorcycles and category 2, 3, 4 and 5 vehicles) can use Autopay application at the A4 Katowice-Kraków motorway.
There is no need to carry a phone with the Autopay application. Cameras read the registration numbers and the toll collection system checks whether a vehicle with given plate has already been registered. A driver may only pass through the gate only if there is a green light on the left side of the lane and if the barrier is raised.
BENEFITS:
- fast passage through the toll collection plazas due to designated and specially marked gates,
- no additional activities needed, which means that you do not have to open your window or hand card or cash to the collector,
- no long queues for gates with a camera symbol,
- immediate transaction,
- you can view all passages through the toll collection plazas and tolls paid at your account in the Autopay application,
- companies may receive one invoice for many passages from Autopay operator, namely Blue Media. It is no longer necessary to collect receipts from motorway gates and settle each of them separately.
Please note: if you by accident or due to emergency enter the lane without video tolling mark:
- inform the collector that you want to pay the toll using the Autopay application,
- wait until the collection launches this payment type,
- wait until your registration plate is read, for green light and raised barrier.
Please note: if the barrier is not raised, toll will be collected by the collector (payment in cash or by card).
In such case you have to check:
- if there are funds on the payment card assigned to the account in the Autopay application or/and
- if the registration plate is not dirty or damaged.
