Toll in Andorra
What is a toll (obligation)?
Most countries in Europe charge tolls. There is a so-called toll obligation. But what does that mean? So-called toll fees are charged for the use of many motorways and expressways as well as tunnels and bridges. The amounts of money gained through the toll are invested, for example, in the road network. This ensures a smooth journey on your way to your holiday. The primary areas of investment are infrastructure, traffic management and road safety, as well as environmental protection measures.
Infrastructure: construction and maintenance of roads and motorways
Traffic safety and traffic management: new technologies such as intelligent traffic systems or toll gantries
Environmental protection: extension of noise barriers or measures to reduce emissions
How is the toll collected in Andorra?
In Andorra, your journey is very straightforward, as there is no nationwide toll system. Instead, a toll is only charged for a single route. This route is the passage through the Envalira Tunnel. You can use all other roads completely free of charge.
Envalira Tunnel (special toll route)
The Envalira Tunnel is the only toll route in Andorra and connects the Grau Roig ski resort with the town of Pas de la Casa on the border with France. In total, the tunnel spans a distance of 2,379 m. As a toll fee, you must pay a fixed price depending on the vehicle type, number of axles and the height of the motor vehicle. Accordingly, no distance-based toll is charged here, meaning the Envalira Tunnel can also be regarded as a special toll route.
You can pay the special toll at the on-site toll stations (with cash or card). If you happen to be travelling in an electric car, you're in for double luck: for you, even the country's only toll route is free of charge!
