Trasportounito, the increase of the highway tolls is such to arrange a mortal blow to the road haulage
Longo: punctually a model of relationship State-concessionaires lacking in transparency is renewed
January 4, 2018
The increase of the highway tolls recently authorized from the Italian government will generate additional burdens pairs to beyond 300 million euros per year at the expense of the haulers. The Trasportounito denunciation, that it has quantified in this figure the economic impact of the tariff increases on the field, emphasizing that this new blow, added to the recent increase in the costs of energy and fuel, is such to provoke a new epidemic of financial crack cocaines between the road haulage companies.
"- He has evidenced the general secretary of Trasportounito, Maurizio Longo - dramatically perpetual a market distortion that favors the situation rents of the highway concessionaires, not to case punctually overhead to the classifiche of the Italian weel-off people, to discapito of who the highway net, given the concessionaires, is found forced to use".
"Punctually, with the increase of the tolls - it has found Longo - a model of relationship State-concessionaires lacking in transparency is renewed: the increases are based on parameters whose values are discretionary; the premialità recognized on the investments on the infrastructure appear grotesque as it would have to be already previewed the emolument on the invested capital. The 27 concessionaires - Longo has asserted - unload on the market the enterprise risk spreading it between work in house, renew of concessions without contest, constants contributions publics, defiscalizzazioni and guarantees".
"Also this year - it has concluded Longo - the medium increase of 2.74% not follows logic of inflation (1.2%) neither, tantomeno, standardized contractual procedures, since the contents of the concessions remain inexplicably secreted you and therefore we can imagine bilateral negotiations and balances of power with all the expenses and the risks at the expense of the contributor and of the final user".
