Road hauliers transporting fuel and lubricants have been authorised to operate road trains with a maximum weight of 49 tonnes

The Cabinet of Ministers has increased the permissible weight of certain road trains transporting fuel and lubricants. The change will remain in force until 1 July 2027.

According to Resolution No. 646 of 28 September, road trains consisting of a tractor unit and a semi-trailer tanker for the transport of petroleum products are permitted a maximum weight of 49 tonnes, provided they have seven or more axles.

However, the load on each individual axle must not exceed the established limit.

The Cabinet of Ministers explained that the amendment was adopted to ensure economic security and the uninterrupted supply of fuel and lubricants to the population and sectors of the national economy.

The decree will come into force seven days after its official publication and will remain in force until 1 July 2027.
