Planned e-TOLL increases: up to +42% and toll charges on a further 645 km of roads?

The Ministry of Finance is preparing new ways to plug the gaping budget — and once again the transport sector is in its sights. A freshly published plan for 2025–2028 includes a proposal for a significant increase in road toll revenues.

The Ministry of Finance is preparing new ways to plug the gaping budget — and once again the transport sector is in its sights. A freshly published plan for 2025–2028 includes a proposal for a significant increase in road toll revenues.

Planned changes:

  • Extension of the toll road network by 645 km (i.e. +12%)
  • Increase in base e-TOLL rates by up to 42%
  • New vehicle classification based on CO2 emissions
  • Possible toll exemptions for electric lorries

1 December 2025 was cited as a possible implementation date. But note — this is only a proposal. There is neither an approved tariff nor a map of new sections. There is, however, a great deal of speculation and a lack of specifics. The government estimates that in 2026 this could bring 2.7 billion zł into the budget.

For hauliers, this is a clear signal: better prepare for price rises. Even if they do not come into full effect immediately, the direction of change is unlikely to shift.

Is it fair to burden a single sector with the cost of plugging systemic holes? Where does "planning" end and the mere testing of taxpayers' patience begin?
