The device

Upon registration for any of the subscription programmes offered by the Attica Tollway, you will be given the e-PASS device FREE OF CHARGE, which must be permanently affixed to the inner side of the windshield of your car. The e-PASS device enables the Electronic Toll System to identify your vehicle each time you pass through the toll station, automatically lifting the bar and charging your account accordingly.

Account Card

If your vehicle is a truck or a motorcycle, then, upon registering for any of our subscription programmes, you will be provided with the special Account Card.

If you own a special account card, you can only pass through a collector’ lane.

Important note: Truck or bus drivers, when travelling on the interoperable road network all over Greece (Olympia Odos, Moreas Motorway, Aegean Motorway, Rio-Antirio Bridge, Nea Odos, Kentriki Odos, Egnatia Odos) can replace their Account Card with the interoperable e-PASS device.

 

Who can use the e-PASS?

The e-PASS device is used exclusively by drivers of private cars and small commercial vehicles, with a height not exceeding 2.70 meters (ONLY IN ATTICA TOLLWAY!). It cannot be used by drivers of motorcycles.

How should the e-PASS device be affixed?

ATTENTION: You must ALWAYS keep the e-PASS affixed to the windshield of your car.

* If you have a heated windshield, there will be a special area where you can affix the e-PASS device. For further information, please refer to your vehicle’s user instructions.

  • Step 1: Clean the windshield of your car using the special tissue
  • Step 2: Remove the sticker from the e-PASS base
  • Step 3: Carefully stick the base of the device to the inner side of the windshield and fix the e-PASS to the base. The subscriber should be able to see the surface bearing the Attica Tollway sticker, which shows the contact telephone number and the website address (see photo).

Remember: Specialized staff at the Customer Service Centers of Attica Tollway are always at your disposal to help you affix the device or answer any questions you may have.

Which lanes should e-PASS holders use?

A distinctive audio signal (beep) is emitted by your device, the electronic message sign turns green, the bar is automatically lifted to let you through, and the charge against your account will have been successfully completed.

LOW:

A distinctive audio signal (beep) is emitted by your device, the electronic message sign turns green, the bar is automatically lifted to let you through, and the charge against your account will have been successfully completed.

BAD:

Four audio signals (beeps) are emitted, the electronic message sign remains red, and the bar WILL NOT BE LIFTED. Your account has been deactivated. Therefore, in order to enter the Tollway, you must pass through a lane served by a collection officer and pay the full toll fee without discount. On payment by cash, you may choose to activate your account (ATTENTION: ONLY ON THE ATTICA TOLLWAY), so that the next time you enter Attica Tollway, you can benefit from the respective discount.

ΝO e-PASS:

Your device has not been recognized by the Toll System or has been cancelled. Make sure that the e-PASS device is properly affixed to the windshield of your car and repeat the process. Do not attempt to pass if the sign “NO e-PASS” is displayed again, the electronic message sign will stay red and the bar will not be lifted. In this event, use a lane served by a collection officer to pay by cash.

What should I be careful of?

  • You should enter the exclusive e-PASS lane only if the transaction of the vehicle in front of you has been completed and the bar has closed.
  • Your speed must not exceed 20 km/ hour, so that if the bar is not lifted for any reason, you can stop in time.
  • Keep a distance of least 10 meters from the car in front of you.

Attention: “the classification and corresponding charging of vehicles when passing through an electronic lane that has a height restriction sign is based on the category of the e-PASS, while the classification and corresponding charging of vehicles when they pass through an electronic lane that does not have a height restriction sign is done electronically through the installed electronic toll system and based on the characteristics of the vehicle (height/dimensions, numbers of axles, etc.) according to the conditions and restrictions (classifications, lane use restrictions, etc.) that apply on each Motorway from time to time. For this reason and for the benefit of the Subscriber’s Entitled Vehicle, in the event that additional loads are carried on the vehicle’s roof (suitcases, bicycles, etc.), as a result of which the initial classification of the vehicle may change, it is recommended not to use the electronic lane, but to carry out the transaction in a lane with a toll collector, so that the vehicle is correctly classified and charged”.

General advice

For the e-PASS device to function properly, it must be kept in good condition. If it is damaged or destroyed, you must visit one of the 12 Attica Tollway Customer Service Centers (8 along Attica Tollway, 3 along Moreas Motorway and one more located off the Attica Tollway road network at the Vehicle Inspection Center “I. KTEO Komvos Amarousiou”).
