New tolls in Biscay
In view of financial and environmental impacts of road transport, charges proportionate to the costs incurred have been established for all users of toll roads.
The regional law introduces and regulates tolls for the use of the following road sections:

e) BI-625 from Laudio (KP 372,560) to Basauri (KP 387,310).
Tolls will apply to vehicles with a GVM above 3.5 tonnes and will be charged at two rates – for vehicles with a GVM of over 3.5 tonnes but not exceeding 12 tonnes (category I) and vehicles with a GVM of 12 tonnes or more (category II). The rates will also depend on the EURO category of a given vehicle. Tolls will be collected electronically.
