AREE DI SERVIZIO E PARCHEGGIO
For the comfort of drivers and passengers on the highway routes under its management, the company has made available numerous service and rest areas specifically equipped. The company has entrusted the management of these areas to third parties and regularly conducts checks on the functionality of the structures and services offered.
The company holds the concession for 14 service areas, of which 12 are located along the A4 Brescia - Padova route and 2 along the A31 Valdastico motorway. All areas are equipped with facilities to ensure a comfortable rest stop, refueling, and refreshment.
Along the A4 Brescia - Padova motorway, there are also 6 rest areas equipped with facilities to meet rest needs and a refreshment point. On the A31 Valdastico motorway, six unattended parking areas are also available.
The services at service and rest areas include:
- Distribution of fuel and lubricants, and related activities.
- Provision and sale of food products and other goods (market).
These services have been subcontracted through competitive procedures prior to the publication of Deliberations no. 130/2022 and no. 1/2023 of the Transport Regulation Authority. The concessions also include electric vehicle charging services, where available.
The quality indicators, specified in the sub-concession contracts, are identified in dedicated checklists used for periodic on-site monitoring. The evaluation criteria include:
- Functionality and cleanliness of restrooms.
- Maintenance and cleanliness of buildings and facilities.
- Cleanliness and maintenance of external equipped areas.
- Functionality of internal and external lighting systems.
- Maintenance of horizontal and vertical signage.
- Cleanliness and maintenance of parking areas.
- Absence of architectural barriers and accessibility of services.
- Maintenance and cleanliness of green areas.
The monitoring results are compared with annual targets defined in the company's certified integrated management system.
The fuel prices on the motorway network are available online on the "Osservaprezzi" website of the Ministry of Economic Development.
The quality indicators and the monitoring and control mechanisms for prices provided in the sub-concession contracts do not refer to Measure 14 of Annex A to Resolution No. 1/2023 of the Authority, as the current sub-concession agreements for the service areas predate the publication of the aforementioned resolution.
For more than ten years, Truck Park Brescia Est has been an area entirely dedicated to truck drivers: here they can stop in complete safety and enjoy services dedicated not only to vehicles but also to people.
Located at the Brescia Est toll booth along the A4 Brescia – Padova motorway and with its 172,000 m2 that make it the largest vehicle truck parking area in Europe, Truck Park is considered a real transport citadel.
