Hungary: a last-minute change in HGV driving bans
The Hungarian Ministry of Transport has partially suspended the HGV driving ban during the upcoming long weekend by establishing so-called \”time windows\” when the movement of HGVs with a MAM above 7.5t is allowed.
The weekend driving ban will be in force for a total of 72 hours but will be suspended from 10:00 PM to 6:00 AM, as indicated below:
❌ March 29 (Friday) from 6:00 AM to 10:00 PM
❌ March 31 (Sunday) from 6:00 AM to 10:00 PM
❌ April 1 (Monday) from 6:00 AM to 10:00 PM.
In a statement, the Ministry has informed that the partial derogation has been introduced to ensure an uninterrupted supply of goods and meet an increased demand. Unfortunately, the decision was announced just a few hours before the time the regular holiday driving ban should come into effect this evening.
