The Ministry of Transportation plans to increase tolls for trucks weighing more than 3.5 metric tons starting in the middle of next year, the Czech News Agency reported on Tuesday.
In the most common category of trucks, those weighing more than 12 metric tons, the rate per kilometer is set to rise by 18.5 percent on motorways and by 26.6 percent on Class I roads.
The goal is to bring toll rates for heavy trucks in line with those in neighbouring countries, the Ministry said.
