Transport taxes and charges The infrastructure taxes and charges indicator is a complex indicator, which includes: Road transport charges (note data is only currently available for the freight sector): Taxes on the possession of freight vehicles or use of road applicable only to vehicles registered in the country (nationality based road charge); Moderately territorial charges: time based charges for the use of road or motorway networks, moderately territorial road charges; including its minimum charge (EUR) and length of minimum period of charge (days) (freight transport); Strongly territorial road charge or distance charge for freight transport; Combined distance and weight based charges for the use of road or motorway networks applied to freight only. So far only Switzerland has implemented it. The indicator could be expanded to include the revenues collected per country, e.g. total toll revenues (EUR) for some countries. Rail infrastructure charges: fixed rail charges for freight and passenger rail; variable rail freight and passenger charge. The indicator could be expanded to include total rail infrastructure charges per country as well as a sum of the total amount of rail freight charges (EUR) and total amount of rail passenger charges (EUR). Information is currently collected for infrastructure charges as well as for total charges, but due to only a few countries submitting data, the comparison is very fragmented.
