Europrice final conference – Bruxelles 13 december 2002
In progress Genoa has to test OCR technology
Solution in urban environment: OBE-based technology (?)
Tolling procedures
[1] Need to link car plate to
property(involvement of external actors)
[2] Money collection
(Legal aspects – Privacy - Lack of specific legislation)
Reliability
Good solution for enforcement (e.g. RTZ control) but problems with RP
Need to check all the plates that will be charged
Big amount of work for urban police
Main issues:

Political aspects
• Strong opposition of many subjects (e.g. shopkeepers)
• Need to perform a long and capillary dissemination activity, in order to improve knowledge and information
• Need to have a deep political debate
• Wide echo on newspapers
• Press position coming from hostile/negative to neutral
The debate is performed at a
local level
No clear link between political position and support/opposition to
r.p.
