Hello
If you aren't actually translating this very document (see link below) , you should check it out
The increased flow of motorway traffic brings in money (many of France's motorways are private with tollgates)
If you don't like 'tolls', use 'raised revenue'of sth like that |

Reference information:
It seems they're talking about tax rather than income and it is a result of traffic switching to using the motorway instead of other roads.
2) à un report du trafic sur les autoroutes -> réduction du trafic sur les "nationales" (nationales ou ex-nationales)
Qui dit réduction du trafic, dit moins de dangerosité sur les routes à 2 voies comme la N149 …
Le report sur autoroute se fera uniquement sur les axes ou des autoroutes totalement parallèles existent. Or je prends un exemple:
pour l'A89, c'est considéré par les transporteurs comme une autoroute de montagne (GO supplémentaire avec les côtes), ils préfèrent donc pour aller de Bordeaux à Strasbourg, prendre la RCEA. De même avec l'A85, ça fait un détour pas possible (donc plus de go aussi) par rapport à la RCEA. Et il y a aussi la RN4...
