In order to avoid any disruption in fuel supply, the Government has published an exceptional decree in the Official Journal.
This decree allows the movement of heavy goods vehicles transporting fuel during weekends and public holidays. This measure has come into effect immediately and will apply until May 11 inclusive.
Normally, vehicles over 7.5 tons are subject to traffic restrictions on Sundays and public holidays, except for specific exemptions. Until now, only certain essential deliveries, particularly to service stations located on highways, as well as to airports and ports, could benefit from these exceptions.
No shortage.. for now!
In the current international context, marked by tensions in the Middle East that could disrupt logistical flows, the authorities have decided to temporarily broaden these exemptions. The goal is clear: to ensure the continuity of fuel supply across the entire country, from oil depots to service stations frequented by motorists.
Specifically, fuel transporters are now allowed to operate not only on Sundays and public holidays but also on the days before and after, if necessary. This logistical flexibility is intended to anticipate any potential increases in demand or localized tensions, particularly during weekend getaways or holiday periods.
