Heavy vehicles contribute significantly to road damage and congestion but do not adequately contribute to road funding through taxes. This increases freight transportation costs and air pollution. Freight forwarders argue that the fuel levy tax model does not account for differences in fuel efficiency between vehicles and that freight is a major economic contributor that is punished under the current system. Buses receive subsidies for using roads while freight does not, despite freight's greater economic impact. The government could help by creating a sustainable freight infrastructure funding system, improving operator training, reducing inefficient freight transport costs, and reducing affiliation fees for regulatory compliance.
