The Ministry of Transport introduced road charging for heavy-duty vehicles on national roads in 2001. The government promotes lorries that are more environmentally friendly by charging them lower fees than the more polluting ones. The measure is not included in the NECP, mainly because it is a long-standing transport policy measure that is not counted towards greenhouse gas emission reduction efforts as its primary goal is to improve air quality.
