"Spain raises the maximum permitted weight for road freight transport to 44 tonnes"
The Ministry of the Presidency has published in the Official State Gazette a Ministerial Order amending several annexes of the General Vehicle Regulations in order to modernize and make road freight transport more sustainable. The main development is the increase of the maximum authorized mass for combinations of five or more axles, which rises from 40 to 44 tonnes, with the aim of improving efficiency, reducing trips, and advancing decarbonization.
The regulation also provides for an increase of up to two additional tonnes in intermodal transport operations, thereby strengthening the connection between different logistics modes. In addition, it introduces specific adjustments for sectors such as forestry and metallurgy, with the goal of adapting the regulation to their productive characteristics.
Another noteworthy measure is the removal of the prior authorization requirement for Euro-modular combinations, which simplifies procedures, facilitates their circulation, and helps reduce both the number of vehicles on the road and the administrative burden on the sector
