Gefyra Litourgia S.A.

What Gefyra Litourgia S.A. does

Gefyra Litourgia S.A. is the operating entity of the Charilaos Trikoupis Rio-Antirrio Bridge in Western Greece, operating under a build-operate-transfer concession granted by the Greek State under Law 2395/96. The company manages toll collection, traffic operations, and traveler services for the sole fixed crossing of the Gulf of Corinth — a 2,252-meter cable-stayed structure inaugurated in 2004. Its core product is the GEFYRA e-pass electronic toll system, complemented by tiered subscription programs (E-pass Pre Paid, e-ergasia pass, Green E-pass, MAZI Weekend), prepaid cards, and the MyGefyra mobile app. Supporting services include a 24/7 Traffic Management Center, roadside assistance, traffic prediction, live camera streaming, and BLINK-powered EV charging stations.

The business operates on a transaction-fee and subscription revenue model: toll rates range from €2.50 (motorcycles) to €81.40 (large buses), with subscription discounts up to 56% for high-frequency users. Gefyra serves individual motorists, daily commuters, commercial vehicle operators, EV owners, and persons with disabilities, with horizontal segmentation across vehicle categories. Distribution is direct-to-consumer via toll-station lanes, online portal (gefyraepass.gr), MyGefyra app, and customer service centers, with cross-network reach through GRITS interoperability across all Greek motorways. The company is a subsidiary of VINCI Highways, the international highway arm of French infrastructure group VINCI, which co-founded Gefyra in 1995 alongside six Greek construction companies.
