Have a look at Go Box Web Site, this tells you all about the system and there is a calculator which will tell you exactly what the costs will be junction to junction.

I suspect what we pay for when we drive through Austria is the excessive wear on their motorways brought about by the huge increase in HGV traffic from Eastern Europe. In effect we are paying an extra tax for all the goods that come to UK that way.

We noticed not just the very heavy traffic but the grooved effect on the road surface espeically on the inside lane. This made steering our van, which has very light steering, quite tiring.

I notice Germany is now charging tolls for HGVs. How long before we all have to pay them ?

Use of Austrian motorways/ expressways requires tax ticket to be displayed on your windscreen.
If your vehicle weighs less than 3.5 tonnes gross these cost 7.60 euros for 10 days, 21.80 for two months or you can buy an annual one.

If your vehicle is more than this weight you MUST use their Go-box system.- min 75 + 5 processing makes MIN 80 euros.
After two years unused credits lapse!

Cheers?

I think it's an exceedingly good system. The vehicles that do the most damage, pay the most in toll charges. In 2006, I saw a long queue of trucks in the Brenner Pass waiting to board a train to transit through Austria. Surley this is the more sensible approach to long distance HGV transport. The sooner we have it in the UK, the better.
