MESSAGE FROM THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER<br />
2009 AnnuAL REPORT APRR<br />
Following a slight fall in car and truck traffic on our<br />
network in 2008, the year 2009 saw an increase in the<br />
number of cars and a considerable reduction in heavy<br />
goods vehicles. The overall effect was a slight decline<br />
over the past two years.<br />
Agreements were reached with unions concerning<br />
salaries and, insofar as APRR is concerned, the gradual<br />
automation of toll plazas.<br />
The injury accident rate continued to decrease while<br />
mortality remained stable, having been halved in 2008.<br />
The APRR and AREA teams once again demonstrated<br />
their efficiency during the recent bout of bad weather in<br />
late 2009 and early 2010, with holidaymakers being able<br />
to complete their journeys thanks to the availability of<br />
appropriate machinery and the skills of our people.<br />
We are there to serve our customers.<br />
Jean-François Roverato<br />
APRR Chief Executive Officer
