Tougher weight control on the roads of Ukraine: realities, plans and prospects

The Government’s program for the implementation of the overdrive control system on the roads has made adjustments in the average prices of logistics services. Many companies have taken the opportunity to reduce the cost of the cost of 1 km of the road due to the load of the body more than the norm, felt the fines. Risk are still working “at random” and try to plot a route so as to avoid the arrival of the complex control, but they are becoming fewer. Since the measures have proved effective and soon the hype dies down? Let’s face it.

Realities 2016

At the end of last year, mobile and stationary checkpoints were working around the clock in 14 regions of Ukraine, in 4 areas they operated in the daytime. A total of 24 mobile road brought a complex, 22 of which operate + – stable. Total on balance Ukravtodor including 34 complex, but 10 of them require expensive repairs. And that’s only mobile. Stationary in the country only a few pieces (in Zhytomyr, Odessa), their condition is close to the non-working.
Statistics might amuse fans to overload trucks. Like, soon dolman all the equipment, and we will go as before. But less than a year, weight control have been more than 120 thousand CU. According to the results checks credited with 2.6 million hryvnia penalties and nearly 35 million fare. Impressive? And what will happen in 2017?

Plans and Prospects for 2017

The Ministry of Infrastructure has held a tender for the purchase of 78 new mobile laboratories, spending 117 million hryvnia credit from the EU funds. The new systems are expected to be mobile, reliable and accurate, but, most importantly, in the sum we get more than a hundred checkpoints that can quickly expand and collapse. To plan a route to detour will be much more difficult, and penalties only promise to grow.
According to the head of Michael Ukrtransbezopasnosti Nonyaka, that’s not all! The structure of the plans to increase the number of new mobile complexes bodied 250 and reconstructed stationary. Such amount will be enough to completely block all detours congested waggons. “Bypass from behind” will not work – we recommend logisticians come to grips with the development of new strategies.
