Amendment 101 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 4
(4) Time-based user charges do by nature not accurately reflect infrastructure costs actually induced and, for similar reasons, are not effective when it comes to incentivising cleaner and more efficient operations, or reducing congestion. They should therefore be gradually replaced by distance-based charges, which are fairer, more efficient and more effectiveDue to geographical differences, such as sparsely populated areas, long distances and large road networks, and low traffic intensity, Member States should continuously be able to introduce or maintain time-based user charges.

Amendment 131 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 9
(9) The variation of infrastructure charges according to Euro emission class has contributed to the use of cleaner vehicles. However, with the renewal of vehicle fleets, the variation of charges on this basis on the inter-urban network is expected to become obsolete by the end of 2020 and should therefore be phased out by that time. From the same point in time, external-cost charging should be applied more systematically, as a targeted means to recover external cost in respect of situations in which it matters most.

Amendment 144 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 12
(12) In order to promote the use of the cleanest and most efficient vehicles, Member States should apply significantly reduced road tolls and user charges to those vehicles. While automated and connected technology allows heavy-duty vehicles to further reduce CO2 emissions’ when platooning, those vehicles should also be entitled to additional reduction of road tolls and user charges.
