All facilities along this section of the A2 Motorway are now managed remotely and centrally from AESA’s dedicated monitoring center. The system is efficient enough to be supervised by a single trained operator from the Securitas Polska team, who oversees alarms, events, and incidents across the full 255‑kilometer stretch.
Employees working across the motorway are equipped with encrypted remote controls to operate automatic gates and entries. This gives patrols and maintenance teams a safer, quicker way to access service points and warehouses without relying on manual keys or local intervention.
Real savings, stronger security
A key outcome for AESA was proving that modernizing security could both enhance protection and reduce cost.
“The two‑year cost of transforming traditional physical security into an intelligent, integrated security ecosystem is actually lower than the annual cost of maintaining constant physical security for the client,” says Grządzielewski. “At the same time, the level of security and the speed of response to potential threats have significantly increased.”
Keeping a critical motorway moving
By moving from a guard‑heavy model to an intelligent, integrated platform, AESA has been able to stabilize expenditures and long‑term costs, reducing exposure to changes in legislation and wage pressures.
A single system to manage means they can optimize staff availability to focus human resources where they add the most value. Not only have they improved response times to incidents along the motorway, it minimizes the risk of downtime that leads to disruption of motorway operations.
Thanks to Securitas and xPro Security, the motorway operator has multi‑site scalability that supports an unlimited number of doors and users, ideal for a growing motorway network. AESA now has a future‑ready platform that supports safer, more efficient operations every day.
Partnership in practice
“The Autostrada Wielkopolska project is not only a success for its technological transformation and operational achievement, it is a great story of collaboration between the end‑user, the system integrator, and distributor,” says Thomas Napora, General Manager and Vice President EMEA at ICT. “The customer’s needs and demands were truly heard and understood by Securitas Polska, who sought advice and worked together with our certified Partner xPro Security to deliver a flexible, affordable, cyber-secure and future‑proof unified solution.”
Beyond security, this project has delivered a system that makes the daily operation of a busy motorway easier and more efficient, helping AESA secure its success while keeping people and goods moving safely across one of Europe’s key transport corridors.
