The only official online shop with Czech vignettes, edalnice.cz, has launched a new page that informs about the changes planned for 2024. You can find it on the main page under the Planned Changes 2024 button.
Drivers will see new traffic signs on our motorways and roads next year. The Legislative Council of the Government approved an amendment to Decree No. 294/2015 Coll. The changed contained therein are based on changes within the framework of the approved major Road Traffic Act amendment and at the same time incorporate experience from practice in response to current trends in road traffic. The use and placement of new signs can be decided by the competent administrative authorities from 1 January 2024.
The French consortium Via Salis (formerly DIVia), backed by VINCI Concessions, VINCI Highways and Meridiam, has commenced the construction of 32 kilometres of the D4 motorway from Příbram to Písek and the renovation of the existing 16 kilometres of adjacent sections. According to the contract, the construction will be completed in December 2024 and the consortium will operate the motorway for the next 25 years.
The State Fund for Transport Infrastructure (SFDI) along with the Ministry of Transport and state enterprise CENDIS prepared instructions on how to proceed in cases when drivers accidentally purchased an e-vignette for a non-existing number plate. People will have the option to request a refund for such payment.
By signing the concession agreement, the minister of transport Karel Havlíček confirmed that the construction of the remaining 32 kilometres and the following 25-year operation of D4 motorway will be managed by DIVia consortium. This marks the beginning of a pilot PPP project, which represents an alternative way to ensure construction and long-term operation of transport infrastructure, including the funding.
The e-vignette information campaign promotes a new way to pay the toll and also points out some difficulties, which can occur during the purchase. Approximately 690 thousand of e-vignettes has already been sold since December last year. In most cases, people buy it via an online shop edanice.cz
