The Council of the EU and the European Parliament have reached a provisional agreement on targeted changes to the Eurovignette directive, which governs road tolls and user charges for heavy-duty vehicles.
The Council said the agreement clarified parts of the charging regime and formed part of wider transport policy work. The measure still needs formal confirmation by the institutions before it can become law.
The proposal sits within broader EU efforts to manage road transport costs, infrastructure charging and environmental policy. The final rules are expected to affect how member states apply tolls and user charges to certain heavy vehicles.
