A few years ago, we preferred our car save money compared to the train or on a plane to go on vacation. While this is still somewhat the case today, the difference is sometimes minimal now, while the cost of living has increased significantly over time. We probably mean fuel prices, which have risen sharply and discourage many motorists from going on excursions, but not only that. Indeed, we also have to factor in fare increases, which also continue to rise over time.

New promotion

Every year in February, the companies responsible for managing the roads have the right to raise prices, and can translate up to 70% of the level of inflation. ago prices increased by 4.75% in 2023 and the increase is expected to increase further. In fact, that’s what Transport Minister Clément Bohn told RMC. According to him, ” fares increase every year on February 1 due to inflation. In 2023, the growth was very significant – 4.8%. In 2024 it will be more limited, below 3%“. Good news ? Both yes and no, as it remains a significant increase.

Less strong than expected

However, it is true that this outbreak is a little less intense than the one that was announced Vinci Autoroutes. In fact, the company said it was willing to raise prices by 5% to compensate for the tax imposed by the government. But the latter replies that he has the last word on the increase, and that there should not be a big increase in the coming years. In fact, it shouldn’t be, especially in 2025.
