Austria to repeal night speed limit for HGVs
Plans to repeal the regulation have been announced by the new Minister for Infrastructure Norbert Hofer.
At present lorries with maximum authorised mass over 7.5 t are subject to a night speed limit of 60 km/h. Hofer’s actions have met with a widespread support of the Austrian haulage industry.
