Netherlands Details Planned Tolls for A15 Extension Linking Zevenaar and Bemmel

The charges are intended to repay the €2.5 billion Via15 congestion‑relief project using automatic plate recognition for payment.

Overview

  • The Via15 scheme would extend the A15 by about 12 km between Zevenaar and Bemmel, add a bridge over the Pannerdenschen Kanaal, and widen parts of the A15 and A12.
  • Construction is reported to start in 2026 with completion targeted for 2031, with one additional lane cited as potentially opening in 2027.
  • Projected tolls on the new segment are about €1.51 per car trip and €9.13 per truck trip, with no extra charge for trailers or caravans.
  • No physical toll booths are planned, with payment expected via license‑plate recognition and online or app settlement under the e‑TOL system.
  • The levy would apply to foreign vehicles including German‑registered cars, and media reports note annual tariff adjustments are planned from 2026.
